Restrain Me Poem by Mark Heathcote

Restrain Me

Rating: 4.9


Restrain me because I want to bathe in your sun
I want a southern moon to shiver on you
from the naked shadows, I'd be casting all over you.
Restrain me; I'm like an applecart toppled over
soon, I will be showing you the core of my heart
how I've longed to touch you in the dark
and trace the horizon that lights up in your eyes.
Restrain me because I want to bathe in your sun
I want only for you, I hunger-for-you
there is no other star shine's-brighter than you.
