Heat Exhaustion

By Invader Lyn

combative kindling, lips flicker blue
eyes and embers reveal the same
I've destroyed entire forests for you
since the first time you set me aflame

please don't touch me
I can't take your heat
will you have me
I'm skipping beats

our breath together is melodic
I time to the rhythm of your skin
your fingertips burn portraits on my flesh
you engulf me over and over again
