For You

By Muse

With mercury dipped fingertips, a vibrant life is painted in shifting prisms; catacalysmic condemntion slashed with sunbursts and phoenix feathers hidden on the winds.

Reach out and catch me, darling, I'm falling so quickly in love that I can barely breathe, barely hold my head above the warm, amber kissed waves of starshot passions. I need to hold you close and breathe your indscribable perfections in.

It's like amphetamines and jellybeans, a sugar blasted high of pure bliss, pounding through my throbbing veins, an ache howling to be realeased. I need to touch you, if only to make sure that you're real. I don't want another fantasy.

I want you. I want the happiness that follows you around in comforting sparks and flashes. I want elemental satisfaction that I know only you can promise. I want nothing more...

Than you.

    its often refreshing to stuble upon poetry which excites the senses, which is exactly what this piece did, I really liked the sensory appeal to this!
