Just realized the description is messed up, sorry about that! This is how it should be:
Line 1: Beginning subject
Line 2: Two describing words about line 1
Line 3: Three doing words about line 1
Line 4: A short phrase about line 1, a short phrase about line 7
Line 5: Three doing words about line 7
Line 6: Two describing words about line 7
Line 7: End subject

lust
dizzy, hot
fucking, smoking, leaving
a moment of passion, a perennial slumber
leaving, rotting, nourishing
infinite, free
death



guidelines
-one entry only
-can be about anything
-do better than i did lol

also to make it look like a diamond do (center) text (/center) but with [ ]

Dying
since birth
we are Death's
constant companions, coddling, entertaining
with pathetic attempts
to negotiate
life

pure
rare, fulfilling
upturned lips, bruised
so little we were, tears drew as arrows
unknowingly they shot
naïve, ignorant
youthful.

claim
open, trusting
exposing scars and traumas
we two, opposite experience, injured
through years & worlds apart
time, growing

                                     Far
                          distant, seperated
                  evoking memories, longings
      remembering time spent together, good and bad
                      Closer embracing together
                           hearts entwined
                                  near

                         Love
                Gentle intimate
            Kiss, caress, arouse
 Ready for action; sensual explosion
        Connect, excite, respond,
                     Wet, tingly.
                      Orgasm

Ice
Nippy, slippery
Titillating, shivering, dripping
Raised gooseflesh sensation, ignited by your spark
Blazing, sweating, burning
Passionate, ecstatic
Fire
