you crawled beneath my veins

i write words for you
i have found in you
a true muse;
i savor you, crave you, desire you, lust for you,
dream about you, miss you when you're gone.
i have found you, my sweet muse,
special just for your ability
to inspire me, to charge me, to hurt me,
to love me even when i don't always realize i'm being loved,
to make me feel like everything and nothing all in the same breath.
i want you, i've always wanted you
deep down
where the synapses fire
and i burn in the
pit of my stomach
with desire to have you
consume you, eat you for dinner,
keep you all for myself
ah, but how selfish of me...
i fight to not smother you
with me.
