Wading through fire

How much sulfur can soak through my feet?

How many old souls have to die young?

I have arms for the lost souls. I feel as if
I will be alone forever, experiencing one child
and one man or woman at a time. 

I feel as if I have only come to observe. 
That I have set myself up as a willing-unattainable. 

So that I might reach into your intimate mind, cum
and let go for the next line of sight in the spectrum. 

I have too much heart to give this void.

I have too much gut for protection.

I don't discard through lack of interest.
I discard because some giant, epic excuse 
manifests itself exactly when I need it to.

Fuck.
