‘What lies at the farthest ends?’
No-one will answer me;
But I know it’s you.
It could only be you;
For when I breathe, I hold your air
And you are here.
When I speak, they are borrowed words
And when I love, you claim my heart;
Mesmerised, I’m yours.
When your body is cold against my side
I am not holding you; it is you
Who steals my warmth.
And when your breath is naked flame against my ear
Your control writhes in my soul
And I am frozen.
And yet, when all myself is yours,
You lay back to admire your work;
I’ll forever stay enraptured.
And when the ends of time approach
They’ll see your smile inanely prised
Across my lips.

My third (and final, as this is the final round) entry into 
's Literature competition; I'm surprised that I made it this far to be honest... I figured I would try something short and sweet for this one - I did initially plan to write a mock epic, but I apparently don't suit those - so here it is.
As always, enjoy!
