When Limerance Dies

Want to be in love
Catching the wisps of fragrance 
Pinpricks of numbness

Want this heart racing
At just the sliver of light
Holding intense heat

Remembering warmth 
Forgetting radiation
Damaging within

Remembering swirls
Forgetting nauseous defeats 
Darkening within

Given a torn suit 
Donating these frozen feet 
New winds collect screams 

Wanting a lover
Is like yearning for the tide 
Sands weights like past scars

The moment breath slows 
Like sun dancing on water 
Tell me when to drown

Slowing down this time 
Free love is never wasted 
Like glistening rocks

Smoothed edges from pain 
Pulverized a gentle heart
Noon tea with fine china

Given your bread crumbs
Thirsty like earth's molten core 
I burned myself over

Want to be love 
Despite this amputition
Carefree like the waves
