Diamond Dust

glistening diamond dust
coats our kinetic bodies
moist jewels lovingly
shared between skin
on us, around us
bond us as we swirl
we taste, meld, blend
thrusting upward,
always higher
edging the thermosphere
shaking, straining, thrashing
against invisible barriers
seeking a way through
desperate for release
finding, erupting, flaring
breaching through to blackness
abrupt tranquil euphoria
static, no sounds
only our breathing
and diamond dust
