BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE
Beautiful nightmare
Sink your bone-dagger fangs into my throat
Drink
And know my every thought
My every emotion
Sink your claws into my mind
And rip
Spill my secrets upon the floor
Wallow in my dreams
‘Til each deviant thought
Coats you in scarlet
Wear my sightless orbs
As bobbles
The pale hues
As fine as gems
Strip my flesh
For your hearth rug
place me
One step closer to hell
And yourself one step
Closer to me
Gather my bones to your bosom
And hold them close
Rock them as you would a child
And from your tender mercies
I will arise
Remade and renewed
In the image you create for me
Lover or slave
It matters not
As long as some slim chain
Tethers me
To you
