You accelerate my heart

You accelerate my heart,
like a wind that sweeps the sea,
a whisper in the darkness,
that invites to dream and to fear to love.

You put my demons at your feet,
you lull them with your laughter and your walk,
you transform them into dancing shadows,
and in your light, they begin to shine.

You take possession of my desires,
like the sun that sneaks in at dawn,
with every touch and every word,
you give life to the flame that burns and disarms.

You flirt with my lowest desires,
like a dance of fire in the cold winter,
stripping secrets, breaking the ties,
turning them into tender verses.

You break my schemes, you distil my reason,
you squander my fears, you play with my voice,
you are the storm that drowns my calm,
the deep echo that howls inside me.

You are the breath, the poem and the verse,
the sweet poison that intoxicates my being,
you accelerate my heart,
you become everything, my last thirst.
