I had a sick desire to undress you
Not just from your dirty jacket,
Your favourite pair of jeans -
No, I wanted to undress you intimatley
To eat your secrets when you kissed me,
And for my touch to linger long in your mind
Even when you left me.
I had an urge, to open the blackness of your eyes
And find something tender and fragile inside
I wanted to cry into your chest,
And talk about the things I feared
Or loved or missed,
I wanted to show you
The death of the oceane
The destruction and beauty in fire,
I wanted you to look at the world through me
Just in one night ,
Just in one eve.
When you came home with me.

I loved that opening line! I feel like this poem would hit punches to gutts if you used some parataxis on it! I also really liked the third last line "to look at the world through me" it really hit home for me with some of my recent feelings :)
Much Love
