Fierce burning in my heart,
Flames licking up the sides of my chest.
Running up my throat.
The smoke billows high around my head,
Weaseling it's way between my ears
Wrapping its winding tail around my mind.
You've shown me the best
This world has to offer me
Everywhere I go
Your influnce follows me
Everything I do
Your words encourage me
Everything I say
Your thoughts flow through me
I don't know how you did itAs a pre-teen I couldn't appreciateAll those years I acted outLoving patience remained your best trait
Your eyebrows pinch together
when you're angry.
I always ask: "Are you angry?"
And you say no.
You always say no.
Maybe, instead, you're frustrated
because you always dream too big.
Complete me and see the most
intruging thing;
my love and womb
bore me with her youth.
Tears my hair out
and glues me in place.
Only one with the hands
