You ache in me.
Your breath crushes me.

I like short poems like this one, and I enjoyed reading your work. My biggest concern for revision is L1. I think you should go with something that doesn't conflict with the intensity of the relationship. And the use of "Another" in the title may be a poor choice. I say this because "another" is a lame transition and the content of the poem doesn't come off lame, really.
Good work.
