devotion

trance-like and magnetic 

my body is fire

undulating 

red flame forgetful 

and you, water striving 

bring me down

each second i die

and return 

true as always

you paint your shadows 

on my skin

pure water you float and sink

inside me 

my roots

deep 

nevertheless, nevertheless

unstable and dry

you have yet to know

the crimson dance

that saves my cinders 

flaking

from my vague body

like masks 

you have yet to know

me
