your name

your name burns a fire in my chest.
the sight and sound of your name unsettles me
like a stone thrown among a flock of pigeons
my nerves flutter from deep in my heart to sharp
tingles at the tips of my fingers
i shudder, struggle to catch my breath cause
the sound of your name brings me memories i
cannot forget.
your name invokes feelings in me as real as the
smell of you in the air just from the memory in my head
and i can still hear you whisper your strange, beautiful
language to me like it was a second ago
your name is torture to my ears and my eyes and my heart
cause it is the name of the dream that can never be mine
