Hush, sweet.

By Idsight

Hush, now
fold into my arms like a paper
boat and I'll go sailing down your
rivers. Hush, inhale,
with a whisper that will tug me 
where your love beats, the place where
we'll meet. Fill me up with 
winter, you can swallow me.
Twined between your heartstrings, I am
smoldering. Close your eyes, sweet.
Come now, melt for me.
Mold into my shape like warm-candle
wax and I'll light your candle
wick. I will
ignite all your tips and watch you
burn for me, I will watch you breathe,
Hush, exhale-

    A couple of very cool metaphors, serenly spoken and developed. Smouldering intensity well-done.
