Steamy

It’s a deep gnawing
that makes me crave
your naked bitterness
in the sweetest of moments,
that makes me desire
your scalding heat
sipped against frozen lips.

It’s a dark magic
that creates such passion
as drives me to my bed,
anxiously awaiting the light
so that I might
indulge in you once more.
