Love Poem: Smoking Glass

Smoking Glass

wash me, 
in the light of your smile
let its cascade bloody my cheeks



cleanse me, 
with the love of your eyes,
smooth your gaze to hold my thighs


heal me, 
with the touch of your lips,
shimmer a spectrum on my fingertips


hold me,
I’ll turn to glass
and shatter in your arms


watch, 
I don’t get under your skin
