Dark Desires of the Heart

Longing, Wishing, Wanting, Craving!
Burning Hunger, in need thirsting
It eats away at me
delirious with
Dark desires of the heart

I need to touch, to feel your flesh
To taste my blood upon your lips,
Sweet erotic memories
Oh yes, they exist

Moving in rhythm like
an orchestrated dance.
In a drunken graceful state
We become one, lost in love and lust

Distance is a crying song
the Lark sings while its all alone
Hunger is a living thing
sated on the tastes you bring

Air so thick it almost drowns
for your scent I gulp it down
Fangs itch deep my jaw within
as I seek to spread your skin

Pulsing heat to make the night a pyre
as I rise to lift you higher
Waves of flame to blurr my eyes
at the echo of your cries

Shadows entwined once again
as without so are we now within

Leaves unfold as if laced in sun gold light.
Heat of night, borrowed from a lover's passion
And the day still leaves me cold, alone, afraid.
My soul is cold.

The distant thunder echoes now,
as if to stop clouded tears from falling.
By yelling out.

The sons of dawn were proud and free,
The daughters of night, no less than they
Now their children scream, their children bleed.
while night and day cry o'er what they see.

My wings aren't broken, for shadows fade.
You cannot break what has been unmade,
My skin's not trembling, though I am afraid,
for all undone can be remade
