Love Poem: Deeper

Deeper

The arching back
Like fingers scratching chalkboard spine
A recognition of a look, that circus
Whirlwind deep inside like Northern Lights
Flickering a rampant flecking iris
I could so easily break a heart

The demonic lust you sooth like karma
Eating through me like a tunnel of fog
And, vapoured, you have corrupted me 
I delve inside of it and of a sudden embrace
I could so easily break a heart

Give me an answer

I lie and sway clear into the grey
The less you know, the less I burn
The less I bleed, the more it beats
I cannot move past this

Give me an answer

Could you so easily break a heart?
I could so easily give my heart
I cannot move past this

Give me an answer.
