Valentines

Flanked by romance, on
All sides, I close my eyes and
Feel your hot kisses.
***

If skin and skin were
All we were I could do this
...if hearts disengaged.
***

My bloodstream races
With heat and adrenaline
And traces of you.
***

This time, last time, one
Time more and then I must resist
Your magnetic pull.
***

You: crack. A bright bulb
That pulls this stupid moth to
Fruitless flailing. Stop.
