Consumed by You

When the noise fades
and silence stretches around me
I long for you

I crave the softness of your lips
the tenderness of your touch
the way a single glance
can set everything inside me ablaze

I hunger for a passion
so fierce, so intense, so ours
that the world disappears
and only you and I remain

I want to lose myself
in the rhythm of you
in the grip of your touch
in a fire that consumes us both

and when the world returns
and I am alone again
I carry you
like a flame inside me -
unseen, unstoppable, untamed
