No Going Back

By Mehana Agnihotri

A heated glance 

We took the chance

Now our bodies move

In a lethal dance 

Skin on skin

Hands, lips and teeth 

I never knew fire 

Could scorch so sweet

Your touch may

burn me alive 

But without it?

I can't survive 

Your gaze kindles

The heat that aches in me

Melting the restraints

Setting my demons free

I am consumed by you

Your eyes, your caress

The way you make me combust

And complete me 

With each thrust 

This may not be love 

But lust? 

Baby we are way past that

Because this is obsession 

And after this 

There will be no going back 

I made my mark on you

And you called me yours

This twisted sense of belonging 

Is why kingdoms go to wars

The world can fall

Or go up in flames

But I won't give up the ruin 

That comes with screaming your name
