lost to eternal longing

it's an amazing feeling, to fall in love. to slowly unwrap the layers so that you see everything at its rawest and most beautiful.

what an incredible night last night was. laughing with friends until my voice was raw; drinking until the world lost its focus and became a parody of itself; inhaling smoke that took me to another world where the air is easier to breathe.

and then there was you. it was as if for one night there was just us. no fuzz, no distractions, with my eyes closed i could sense your presence, there with me. if i could i would meld you to my soul so you never have to leave.

you do to to me what spring does to cherry trees. you started my revolution. you picked me up bruised and broken from the darkest winter and led me to the sun.

together we make our own religion, you are my god. infallible, touchable, tender, cruel, you are whatever i need you to be. like a pilgrim in search of salvation, you began to be irreplaceable for me long before i had heard of you.

lying in bed with you is as if i have shrugged off the world. my passion for you is an eternal fire. consumed by lust and need I greedily beg for your presence. desire - the word even sounds like a moan.

we are bound together like an onion. layer upon layer of understanding. you know what i want, you know what i need. you are my mirror, a perfect reflection of myself in a male body.

although you are 1400 miles away you are tied to me by invisible threads. my need for you is near addiction.

everything in life is uncertain.
except my soul is burning.

oh, and what you asked me last night, if you meant it i would have said yes.
