Remains
See how our bodies
gyrate through the night
never tiring as they seek
release from tortured longings.
The shiny bodies are
beautiful and worthy
of our lusts, but even
our kindest childhood
smiles are reduced to ash.
Even the whimpered
sighs of our sweetest
unions will one day
be silenced as we
surrender all that we were
to the flames.

This is good. Cling to the dark and avoid the storms that follows. What you dream cannot hurt you near as bad as a flood of words.

Our ashes (should we choose cremation) I look on as simply all that is of us that could die but not all of us in total.

The flames are burning inside us while receiving good fucken pleasure. Keep on writing.

This poem is the very reason we should make the most of all life has to offer, as long as nobody gets hurt.
