thirst things first

By skully

Just, just, just
To hear your voice
The soft roar
Of first love

Must, must, must
Know your safe
The quickening heart
Or a dying dove

Lust, lust, lust
For just your name
A howling hum
Lifts your honour above

First, first , first
First things thirst
Softest , subtlest breath
Is almost enough
