Suspended

I will make you ascend  
smoke from a flame  
unraveling as you drift  
heat lifting you on your way  
 
into the darkness  
open space  
a place for all thoughts  
lose their trace  
 
stretched soft leather  
collecting your fate  
twisting your desires  
lifting internal weight  
 
attention bound  
to all sensations  
toes curling  
chants penetrating  
 
cold fingers press  
deep into your chest  
fear sucks in quickly  
as I brush the past  
 
hands cluster  
around a slender neck  
choking the fear  
that capsized the wreck  
 
with lips that press  
a pounding chest  
emotions swell and surge  
raining upon me as they crest  
 
the salty surrender  
of eyes unlocked  
I begin to fill voids  
into gaps no longer blocked  
 
I free the hold  
to all that binds  
you freely suspend  
to the fire that blinds  
 
dance my darling  
to the tips of the flame  
surrender to the singed edges  
that I now claim
