A single thread,
Glowing and hot
Twines it’s wayFire bubbling beneath skin, threatening
To fill me with smoke, escaping
Through every pore-
Out into the worldI’m not cold
But I’m shivering,
Goose pimples prickling
My skin as I listen
To your heart,
Hiding between your words.

A single thread,
Glowing and hot
Twines it’s wayFire bubbling beneath skin, threatening
To fill me with smoke, escaping
Through every pore-
Out into the worldI’m not cold
But I’m shivering,
Goose pimples prickling
My skin as I listen
To your heart,
Hiding between your words.
