You stand as a statue of salt and of grace, With the frost of the ages carved deep in your face. Your skin is the porcelain, brittle and bright, A ghost in the garden, a thief of the sight. The silk of your sleeve is a heavy, white shroud, Your silence is thunder, your stillness is loud. I offer my pulse to the edge of your hand, Like water that sinks through the thirst of the sand. The sweet scent of jasmine โ€” a quiet recall, I wait for the blow, or the kiss, or the fall. The moon is a socket, a sightless white orb, The pain is a nectar I long to absorb. O, my beloved, crowned in the lilies of deathโ€ฆ I am the captive who begs for your breath. Your heart is a kingdom of marble and rime, A goddess of ice at the summit of time. Unattainable shrine of the profane and divine, Where desire and pain are intertwined. To be crushed pearl underneath your hard heel โ€” The only devotion Iโ€™m parched to feel. A drop of my sweat on your cheek turns to sleet, I lay all my pride in the dust at your feet. Your touch is a burn that is birthed in the chill, The blade of a master, the force of the will. You accept the libation, the milk in the bowl, Then stare through the ribs at the cage of my soul. Tie the silver wire tight. Starve the morning of its light. In the palace of your chest, Lay my frenzied heart to rest. Cruel and holy, close and vast, I am yours until the last. White silk on the floor. An ivory door. The salt on my tongue. The longing unsung. You do not move. You do not love. Cold and awe.
