3:00.. 3:00.. 3:01
Flashes maniacal red behind my eyes
Echoing your words...
"here I am.. here I am... here I am"
Somewhere between these sheets and
my hallowed chamber of dreams.
How many blinks?
Since I last thought of your skin
or your eyes that lick flames
across my flesh?
I tumble precariously
through cotton clouds..
Clouds.. that embrace
and shelter aching limbs..
Limbs that ached
that ache
for you.
How many blinks?
Until oblivion steals you away..
to the place I now exist..?
3:01... 3:01... 3:02..

Mmm. Fire, I loved this poem, it was simply stunning. More, please, more!


Me

Come to me
Kill for me
Worship me.
Follow everthing I do
Act it out before me
