Stars in our eyes

I want to
inhabit you,
break dermal barriers,
meld flesh with flesh,
intertwine capillaries.

I want to
pump mingled blood,
inhale sweeter oxygen,
breathe in, out,
in, out.

I want to
hear the universe explode,
feel shiny slivers
of light
needle into our pores.

I want to
look out
through shared eyes,
be blinded
by stars.
