Gravity bends
the substance of my dreams.
I cross the threshold
of your event horizon.
Light precedes me,
attenuating,
wrapping me in ribbons--
sailing me
into nights true heart.
I am crushed
by your presence,
bathed in the passion
of unseen flame.
I spiral toward extinction
surrendering to torture.
A lightless fussion possesses me,
my beloved Dark Star.
blinding beauty
sears my flesh,
a white-hot crucible
where two souls meld
an alloy tempered
past reason.
I fall into her fire.
I part the flames
with my passion
Ashes scattered
by her hand,
uncover a phoenix
in hiding
I am reborn.
Her arms form
a welcome cage,
soft lips invite
a tour of paradise.
I am lost in
consumption
pleasure is a wheel
turning endlessly.
Incandescent,
is my love.

Hi Stranger
"I fall into her fire.
I part the flames
with my passion
Ashes scattered
by her hand,
uncover a phoenix
in hiding
I am reborn. "
This is excellent imagery
and romantic
