between these walls

between
these walls
i caress
the contour
of your corners
and peel away
the applique backing
of printed paper
expose the raw grain
and drywall
that live beneath
i see the very
insides of you
that you strive
to keep concealed
with full length
mirrors
and gold framed
lithographs
of bygone
originals
but i deny
you this desired
adornment
i want you
naked
and unfinished
that as i slide
my hand
across
the surface
i can feel
the devil
in your details
and burn away
inhibition
in a sinful
fire
of passionate
renovation
remodel
you newly
complete
between
these walls
_________________________________________________
between
these walls
you play advocate in
enkindling
my spirit
applying pressure
unnerving to flesh
allowing me to
invoke the goddess
within
you give the moon
and the sun consent to
shine as one
conceiving
radiant twilight
where we
bask in the center of
becoming
one reflection
musing each other's
mental
you may deny
but i admit
the temptation
is deep
plant your seed
with in me
as i exhale
the breath
you inhale
between
these walls
