I Could Sense You

I could smell the heat.
As it surrounded me
Your breath, like honey
Drowned out the din.

I could taste the fire.
As it captured me
Your neck, like ivy
Curved around mine.

I could hear the burning.
As it deafened me
Your hands, like moleskin
Set me afloat.

I could feel the flames.
As they lured me
Your voice, like fig-leaves
Diverted my blindness.

I could see the sunset.
As it held me
Your eyes, like cymbals
Kept me anchored.
