Forever
lips trace smooth skin, kissing edges of black ink patterns
This is it.
grey strands touch to raven ones, entangling them in ever-new dances
This is what we crave.
warm shivers
Every century, every decade,
cold sweat
every year,
fingers grip sheets
every month,
breath hitches
every week,
sapphire orbs meet obsidian
every day,
mouths brush
every hour,
deafening pain
every minute.
waiting
We wait
faces, a breath apart, stare at each other
for this.
sayings are exchanged
We complete each other.
sins confessed
We've both had many o' mortal lovers
lungs breathe in addicting scent
but even when play grew to passion
legs mash
it was never quite like this.
teeth pierce skin
So they left this world
fangs show, drunken on hellish wine
and we stayed.
eyes close
Because we know
jaws move to form a word
if we want
Forever
this is what we get.
