Proof
Warm gusts from the gulf of you
kisses sustained in mid air
drenched of my rain
washing salt from sea foam eyes
contusions line the mucus within
releasing me of emotional pain
in spite the cruelty of this dimension
rising weightless, thermals turning
a lightness of being molded into you
amidst a storm that tethers us
the sides of my skull burning
a blinding sirocco, its white heat
bursts from my palms, the screams
recall your predator escape
from my broken lips, your desire,
of scars, a raging pulse of reptile
that I have given all of myself
and taken all of you
proof.

I love the couplet style ending with a singular word, Jade. This one packs an ethereal quality of dimensional convergence with the peel of human emotion. Well done.

This is incontestable proof of your passion, Jade. You survive contusions and other damage in giving the gift of yourself. Makes that gift all the sweeter. If the passion's shared, all the better:
from my broken lips, your desire,
of scars, a raging pulse of reptile
that I have given all of myself
and taken all of you
proof.
All the proof I need, Jade.. Fine work! Good luck with the comp...

Oh gosh, my crowfly friend, over the past half a day, and through having to twice recharge my iPhone battery, I keep returning here in hopes to have the words to do your wonderful comment justice, and perhaps now I'm ready...
to recall how it was for me, how I felt & thought when the poem started pulling me through the brimstone of its premise, until I was able to take charge and slam it across the cul de sac at the finish.
Your insight is uplifting for me, with my gratitude!

In awe of the ability to personify nature and attach unique descriptors to human exchange.

Thank you, Mr Jazzmanor, for visiting me with your thoughts, it's been a while.😊

Yeah, coping with two friends' deaths plus helping two different people move, in addition to being sick and dealing with a new tenant in the house I grew up in has taken up a lot of energy. (I won't say anything about the basketball and the snow)

Oh my. Well, that's why I write, so it keeps me from bleeding all over the screens (with real blood) that readers use to take in my word verses with a hope to relate. And that's why I pray & wish you well so that we both can keep from hemorraging. Thanks again, sir, for being here with me.
