Burn Baby, Burn


I want to start a fire

my kindling you.

You know too hot
to touch, the burn -
the pain a candy

recalled from every shelf.

I want to start a fire

my kindling you.

I wonder if you
shake awake from
nightmares and her

like you did me.

I want to start a fire

my kindling you.

So I never have to
sleep in a bed of
strangers for a mere

moment with you.
