Cool Twilight

Gloriously emporious,
The stars
That are mine tonight.
I absent the cool
And tardy the warm.
I'm graciously still
And flogging this pain.
I love the sweet hurt
That you bring with your life,
Your breath, the rhythm
The sound and the scent.
You tap on a nerve
And send me to ground.
I chew on the dust
Here in your street.
You stand on my head
And force the gritty,
Dusty words from my mouth,
I love you.
And I do.
So, I rip out my heart.
