Exposed To Light

Turn over the rocks in your life
and expose me to light
A pale specter
Writhing in the glow of your being

Feeding upon your conscience
I grow into a passion
You can harvest
At your convenience

Watching you stare into the future
Fearful of your prescience
I slink about your present
faithfully redolent

Are you heartened by my adoration
Or weighted by my need
I have no reason to suckle you down
But I’ve found your breast
And won’t let go

The force of your will
the rush of my love
smoldering friction
is it a comforting warmth
Or the fire igniting
