When you talk
something catches in my chest
my heart trying to keep up pace
They talk about chemistry
between two people
but what they never talk about
is the hunger
the need
the yawning chasm that needs to be filled
I once read of a star exploding
releasing an infinite amount
of energy
I wonder what will happen when we touch
I think it will be just like that
an explosion
Spontaneous combustion
A supernova on earth
And when you are gone
I will still be gathering the ashes
of what's left of me.
