You are too much for me




















You are too much for me
but I am a selfish, jealous dog
enslaved to your eyes
when you smile at me
completely unarmed
when you speak softly to me

I bully my fear down and behind me
when you share
when you are heaven to anyone else
and beat my chest and roar
enraged, my heart leaking

but when we are alone
though my back groans with ambition
my arms prefer your thighs strong
until we fall
and I roll over, around, and about you
pressed against you
looking for a way in
begging your approval
