Author’s Note
This poem is a surrender to fire and control, an exploration of desire and the delicious tension between breaking and rising. It is not a confession, but an invocation of intensity—body, mind, and soul.

Invocation
I call the storm of sensation,
the ache of longing,
the fire that demands surrender.
Come forth, reader—
feel the pulse,
feel the rise,
feel the release.
Ruined & Rising
Poetry by HxNightshade
I wrap myself in need…
I ache to bleed—
to be unraveled…
just to be undone by you.
Let me taste your fire…
let it lick my skin…
let it scorch the nerves beneath my pulse…
let it fuel my desire—
as you watch me rise…
higher…
higher still.
Hands on my throat…
squeeze tighter…
feel me gasp,
feel me tremble.
This isn’t a game…
this isn’t a joke…
I want you…
all of you…
in full, unrelenting control.
On my knees…
begging, please…
pleading for release…
for the heat…
for the storm…
for the way you make me ache
and ache again.
Go ahead—
just tease me.
Push me…
pull me…
watch me fracture and fly.
Every shiver… every sigh…
your fire sears through me.
Every glance… every touch…
I am yours…
completely…
without restraint.
And as I rise…
higher…
higher…
your gaze anchors me
even as my body forgets itself
in the delicious torment
you command.
Benediction
May the flames that consume and elevate guide you.
May the ache you witness awaken your own pulse.
Carry the memory of heat and ascent.
