Desire

To be a molecule in the air
That surrounds you
To touch you everywhere
To hide in the forest of your hair
And reside in the tunnel of your ear
To nestle for a while in your armpit
And descend into the crease that forms
At the top of your thigh when you sit
To be in your mouth as you taste morsels of sweet food
I want to be in every crevice of you
And when you no longer cease to be
I want to reside atomic-sized inside you as
Your essence turns to dust
