slow-burning fire

You come to me
cupping a slow-burning fire
in your small brown hands

You ask without asking
to place your fire
inside my trembling body

I bend to you,
drawn to you,
like the willow to water

I allow you to unfold me,
fill me with your fiery essence,
bring me to incandescence

Our bodies will become one
soon, soon
