The thought of you
creates a sensation
inside of me
like fluttering flaming butterflies
burning through
the lining of my stomach
and charring my insides.

Please
extinguish the flames
and replace
the thoughts of you
with your presence,
so this burning need
can turn into
a warm, comfortable glow
that we can both enjoy
together.
