dissolving bones

in a boiling bath

cigarette smoke

floating, drifting

succumbing,

she’s in and within

dancing behind closed eyes

my fragile body

slowly disappearing,

she hushes

moving invisibly through my veins

the essence of her scent

those sleepless summer nights

entwined,

flesh and minds, becoming one

with the moon shining

through the window

our pleasure

illuminated, dazzling

toes numb from fucking

 she sighs, comes

evaporating in seconds

as my cigarette burns out

once more
