In the silence where words falter, I stand as more than wood and plaster. Years waged against shadows long, Fighting to belong where I belong. Fear in my heart, a tethered thing, Trembling like a silent string. I wish to weave with you my soul, In whispers, let desire unroll. Grasp me tightly, if you dare, With touch that burns like summer air. Don't let me steer the ship alone, I've navigated storms unknown. Show me thirst, insatiable fire, Awake in nights consumed by desire. For in your arms, I'm unconfined, In endless rounds, our worlds entwined.
