Reflections

I see the reflections of your eyes -
A haunting hunger -
Humility passed over -
Wanton lurid affection

No longer the whore -
Of my own passionate intrigue -
I turn away -
Washed through -
Swollen -
Cast aside -

I reach for your hand -
The bones of -
Your beginnings -
The secrets of -
Your endless journey -

They will not be mine -
This day -
Nor tomorrow -

And then -
I am dead -
