Inside

inside my pocket

are the keys to

your world and

to the gratification

we both seek;

inside your pocket

is the lock in which

the key fits that

will open our chosen

but hidden kingdom;

inside our hearts

rests a latent desire,

undernourished,

full of melancholy

and mature despair;

inside our minds

we foolishly cling to

each other's needs

and without glancing

back, the key is

quickly inserted.
