burning

i'm love lost
not forlorn but so close it is
woven into my very skin and the way I breathe
is a new kind of day
since we spoke those three little words.
a phrase so full of power and life and risk and adventure and peace I cannot
contain
this
burning.

you spill into my every thought
step
future self.
I will shout it loud in my head and my heart cannot beat without your name written on it
wouldn't want anything but
US.

oh lord, I am so lost in this burning bush and it is beautiful.
never ending, never consuming
but
encompassing.
I burn for you.
