lightning dream*

our cheeks
flushed like
pink clouds aglow
with sultry lightning
passionate and
unpredictable
unfolding our tragedy

i need you
with the
electric energy
flaring blue
and white hot
in sinful bed
of heavy clouds

billowing castles
of our desire
light up the
churning expanse
of heaven
and we ascend
just for tonight

a rush of
panicked salty
hands and
mouths
leaves me
burned and hollow
and we go up in flames
