A Demon's Love

If I am made in God's image,

I'll slash myself to watch Him bleed.

I'll cut Him deep as He's cut me -

this twinkling blade is all I need.

Love the captor, hate the chains.

'Kiss Me, Kill Me' is my song.

This steel remains through flesh and blood

to cut me hard and deep and long.

Your drugs: a cancer to my mind.

I'll bleed them out so I can feel

this lustful vengeance in my soul.

I'm kissing blades, caressing steel

gleaming in the dark of night.

My lover smiles watching me sleep.

Wake me with your stinging lips and

love me long and hard and deep.

Dancing, spinning, screaming, you

bleed from men the tears He'll cry

stuck in Heaven; on this earth, we'll

hurt Him, kill Him - you and I.

Trusting none outside myself,

you slip beneath my skin, my guard.

So let us join, right here, right now -

take me deep and long and hard.

Lucifer, most beautiful

of all God's angels no more weeps,

for, tempered into one long blade,

between my sheets he sleeps.

AN (title): in my defense, i didn't want to name something else 'untitled.' *cringe*

also: Farfarello is the demon who guards the gates of Hell in Dante's Inferno (from his 'Divine Comedy')

AN: 'Kiss Me, Kill Me' is Farfarello's character song.

AN: tried to make the poem grammatically sound by adding punctuation. why? cos i had to have a comma in the last (7th) stanza, the commas in the 6th's second and third lines, and a semi-colon (maybe a period...) in the 5th. i hate adding punctuation. so many meanings hacked off...like in math when you lose a value for X...ah well. those are the only three (five?) things that are necessary, so read without the rest of the punctuation marks if you like.
