the pressure
behind my eyes
has the world
in a false
sense of half speed
as i struggle
to contain
the rapid eruptions
raging through
my inner ear

so i do
the only thing
i know

i throw every
piece of my
broken into
loving her

letting go of
the ache
inflaming my
every other
insipid thought
pouring accelerant
over the inferno
she ignites
on my every
raging desire
