Addicted

tonight, every piece of me is thirsty for you
like a desert craving for a raindrop
 
my body is cold & this makes
my heart yearns for your presence more
 
to plant romance in the privacy of your body
 to bury me in your chest
till the softness of your heartbeat sings me to sleep
 
with you, love is sweet
this means: my heart is always
comfortable with you around
 
right now, if you were here, with me
i would have held onto you tighter than your skin
bury memories in the pockets of your body
clay your brokenness into sparkles
 
& let our scars sink into love
for our bond is as endless as true love
