I cannot help what I am. I stopped running from it a long time ago. I am trapped in this world, heart broken and waiting in a place that is not meant for me. I surrendered myself to forces so evil and perverse that I could not be forsaken because I have no soul to give.
Walking among fields of her labyrinth,
my heart began pounding trying to break from my chest.
Heavy, frozen breath seeping from my lips,
gnashing teeth,
and the gaze I hold that hunts for beauty in her crimson drops.
They once thought me to come from hell beneath, but I came from the sky. A devil shroud in light thirsting to belong to a heart- to be devoted in ecstasy and a river of cycles to drown me. I could feel my grasp tightening, my flesh searing; and as the bite pierced flesh, I tasted the sweet nectar and began to spiral. Drinking harder, my body throbs and writhes violently. I am entranced. Her blood in mine, I have lost myself in her spouting cries. Beyond love and death, beyond all reason. Pressed against her essence, I am the one being taken in- like life’s fruit squeezed for its juices- becoming hers. For I am the one truly bitten.
In trying to grab her heart, she had mine in her grasp; all the while, feeling the blood run inside. She gets inside, she makes me better than anything I have tried; it is in her lips. The blackest sea, deeper than anything I could reach. I bury my face between her valley, anointed by her flowing nectar. For not all angels are good- some are devils frothing at the chance to be drenched by the fetters of the heart. They want it with her fangs inside them, with her words in our sleep. It comes on ever so strongly, making a devil solid and binding in presence- twisted, but true.
Newly born, sweet and pure, was the grasp for a heart…
