In the dark and silence of the night
I creep across death's threshhold...
and through your door
specteral-
longing-
- impatient...
and finding you aslumber
into your dreams i must creep...
where any form is mine to create
this is my reality
this world of whisp and ghosts...
my realm my kingdom, you are my thrall
the room it fills with candles stubby and whispering of flame...
they gutter longing to go out... to give themselves to the black...
you, half dressed in white... the gown wrent, torn, where am i...
from the shadows i pounce, and turn your face to mine...
i cover your mouth with my mouth before you can see my face... it is my one last gentle act... and you can sense it...
your heart races and your heat rises as the last of your dress falls way...
we hit the floor together...
a tangle of arms and legs...
and the you are on your knees
your eyes can barely trace the blackness of the floor as we become one... a beast with two backs...
throbbing and heaving... you awaken from your sleep...
just a dream...
and yet your room is now filled
with short stubby candles...
which all gutter out...
the moment you see them
