Description
restless, sweating, hot confusion,torturous waking illusion
you can't sleep, can't think
can hardly see
raw desire burning holes
in your thoughts, your skin, your soul
a fervid dizzy spin;
oppressive need.
fickle flames of passion fly,
raging chaos amplified,
you can't find the earth
beneath your feet
heady sun glares all around,
closing in till it surrounds,
reason melts under
its scorching heat
thirst in your throat, squint your eyes
white pavement all dusty-dry
thick war-paint of sweat
on your hot skin
screaming at the white-hot sky
a plea, a wail, a moan, a cry
anything to soothe the fires within
and then-- cold comfort, as the rain begins to fall...
it hisses as it hits your face
soaks every inch in an icy embrace
glides down your arms and wakes up your skin
and takes you high to oblivion
kisses your eyelids, slides down your neck
caresses your stomach, rolls down your back
pierces your clothing, pulls your hair down
and pelts your thoughts until they drown
ice droplets, daggers
with each cut bring pleasure
antidote, sharp relief
too great to measure
sheet of cold blades
delving into your depths
clearing your mind of all things, except--
the cold comfort
of each new knife cutting you clean
