�Promise to be courageous.�
You�re a voice
in the night,
a sample of flesh.
I feel your breath,
its dampness envelopes the stillness.

�No promises...�
Even in the darkness,
I see your sulking countenance,
heartbreaking,
inevitable.
The poetic phrases,
the emphatic passion
in the simple request
spoken by the most flawless of tongues.

�I need you,
but fear the consequences
of needing you.�
It�s the same trite
late-winter midnight binary:
desiring the purity of our love,
detesting
its all-encompassing power.
