Don't disappear for me
,
just come closer.
I don't want your light dimmed,
I want it on my skin.
Keep your wild, your hunger,
your pulse that doesn't wait for permission.
I want to feel it
against my breath,
beneath my hands,
a rhythm that doesn't end where I begin.
I'm not here to quiet you.
I want your chaos to meet mine,
to crash, to spark,
to find that perfect edge where control dissolves
but the truth stays intact.
Your fire, 
my fire
,
not surrender,
but ignition.
Let's not blend until we blur,
Let us collide until we bloom.
I want to know your soul by the way you move,
The way you look at me when words fall useless.
Bring it all,
Keep who you are,
And together,
let's burn the world into something new.
									
								
Love After Love
Where We Burn
