Your Touch, My Midas
October 13, 2023
Golden hair enshrines the face I idolatrize
A halo of the divine
Sharp forget-me-not eyes
Echo skies filled with sunshine
Nimble fingers drip molten gold
On anyone who gets too close
My skin reddens and blisters
Wherever your burning touch flows
You remake me for the better
Who is it that you see?
For when the illusion shatters
All that’s left will be me
I’d carve out my heart, and give it to you
Let your scorching touch bestow new life
Burn the flesh, remake my heart anew
A perfect golden sculpture, fit to be your wife
