Denied by distance
tethered by time
I’d set fire to the night
with ten-thousand lights
if it would lead you here, to I
___________
Dance with me amongst stardust and fireflies
if only to embrace you
sudden clarity
answers that supersede the questions
____________
For the chance
to graze my fingertips across you
every curve, every plane
flesh on flesh
to hear you breathe my name
