Me in You
#1
Burning and dusty
Cold and treacherous
Thirsty and Salty
I searched for me in you
There I am;
In the center of void

I can see the idea. However for the poem to work I would suggest some better linkages in the first two lines.
It is not easy to suggest alternatives but perhaps:-
Burning with fever
Freezing to numbness,

Maybe it's just me, but I really just see a list of adjectives with no corresponding nouns, followed by a "void." It doesn't create anything very poetic to me.

Hi...
it is like we have profiles of others in us. This is the search of his life/love through a painful reasoning process he goes though within him. i.e. to find himself within herself residing within him.

Aha that's lovely...thanks Julius

here i want to bring dusty = "tiered / hectic" something similar to person lost in the middle of a desert
and treacherous = "dangerous" like a person climbing a mountain where he can easily loose him self.
