The Blood & The Bones

to desire the flesh

is a temporary craving

satiated by touch

often gone just after the last thrust

but to covet the heart

to have passion for one’s mind

is to feel your soul get fucked

a hunger never satisfied

like bloodlust

one encounter is not enough

and i see them beg for your attention

shaping themselves into

what they think

you want them to be

offering vapid sex

or short term infatuation

not lasting connection

not intensity

or raw carnality

they want you

desperately

yet still i feel you

as always

I feel you

looking only at me
