I Will Whisper Even When You're Not There

I feel like a trespasser
a poacher
fur hatted
I call for you
a whippoorwill shriek
of panic
when you’re not there.
I char myself
cut my chest open
popped like a peach
baring my seed
would you taste?
the fear drip from the bridge
of my ribs
let me know what you think?
how close could we stand
if we don’t whisper
who we are
would I even know you
if you kiss me
on closed eyes
in communes.

I love your title. You have great titles, by the way. Hrmm...
You have some great lines here. They don't always add up to quite the right equation, but that seems to be the charm of your work. Everything flows, no matter what.
