"intensely burning"

Ok, i KNOW that doesn't make sense, but really, what would you all class it as?? =P
"intensely burning"

i wake harshly
from a dream in which i was
raped - killed - fed to dogs
revived - burnt at a stake -
called witch - watched my
youngest brother be eaten by
a hag - and prayed for by
people who did not have eyes
to see or ears to hear my
dying screams - no noses to
smell my putrid burning flesh

but you are there
a mess of arms and legs and
warm flesh, eyes melting me
into your endlessness
voice soothing over frayed
and relentless nerves,
so cool and smooth like a
mental honey and i am licking
love off of your lips
pain and dreams and past forgotten
in a sweet intangible moment
which flows into another
and another
and another

keep me with you always at your
side - i don't care if it's a
dream - i do not ever want to
wake - if this is false reality -
let me exist in the nothingness
that lies between real and
nonexistant - hopeless heart
beat is crying i am aching
from how bad i love you -
such feeling
such knowledge
of the words
-want-
-love-
-need-
burning under my skin
burning burning burning sweet one
but you have eyes to see my tears,
you have ears to hear my fevered whispers,
and you have hands to feel my scorching skin,
but here,
there is no smell of charring flesh.

i wake harshly,
but i return to sleep so sweetly.
