Sacrificed on the Alter of Love

Haunted by my memories, by the things that didn’t last. 
I try to run from the pain, but a spell of ruin upon me you have cast 
To you I pledged my love, my heart you ripped out whole 
As you watched me bleed I saw the blackness in your soul 
I laid my body upon your alter and from my lips you drank 
You ravaged upon my feast, giving more than I could take

I’m your nightmare
I am your dream
I excite and terrify you
I make you scream
Pain and pleasure all in one
Can you handle it
Or will you come undone
Your flesh hot, your body ignites
Your mind will explode with my ghoulish delights

The sound of silence is loud to me. Loneliness my lover.He keeps me wrapped up tight. I know I'm not his one and only. I know this and I'm alright. "You think I fear you?" I shouted, as he laughed in my face while I raged. "No, no my child." He said. "I laugh for I know I'm the only one who will be with you till you go to your grave!"

Maria, Maria full of grace. He wipes the smile off her face. With his hand front and hand back, he gives her lovely face a smack. Tears fall free and bruises rise, yet she faithfully stands by his side. Maria, Maria full of grace. A boot now takes the hands place. Broken ribs add to the tears. She cowers and stays even with her fears. Maria, Maria ...

Alone he worshipped at her feet.

Her heart he claimed.

Her  thoughts did creep.

He protected her with a soldiers trot.

She possessed his body.

But it was his soul she sought.

He praised only her, turned others away.

Faithful he followed, not seeming to stray.

Choked by his love, him killed by her kiss.

A woman insane, her thoughts amiss.

Love him she tried, love him she can't.

With his heart ripped from his chest, beating in her hands

Only then did she feel she could dance.

Follow me. I'll follow you. One plus one equals two. A plug to a socket, a current runs thru. The call of the wild, avalanche starter. Glacier breaks, the horses charge. Magnets must pull to you. Your iron fillings never to get off I'm screwed. What’s the theory of the color of sound? Your answer a soundless dance. Sensuality and free expression foreplay in the mind it takes a stance...

Lovey Dovey

You never see an eagle flirt with a dove

Blood has never been as thick as mud

Talons drip on white wings covered in mud

Killing is so much cleaner than love

 

Low brush strokes on a high rise sky

The predator in human cannot be disguised

Sometimes love falls, sometimes it dies

Killing is easier than love asking why

There is

a dripping.

Hot and thick,

the droplets

Peck at

my flesh

Like pigeons,

ravenous birds.

A live quiet

Lies in wait.

Anxious dead

Rise in place;

Graves breathe,

Heavily.

They come forth

Steadily,

She rejects his lukewarm touch;

It pulses with self doubt.

He is inadequate

And she is loved.

The steam disperses,

Cold sweat slides in.

He is shamed.

She is gone.

Take from my dreams,

Turn them to reality.

Betray these bipolar kings!

No more insanity!

Break necks as I fall.

Welcome to the prophecy

Of zanexes and adderalls;

Prescribe my hypocrisy

Because love is obscene.

we dip our feet in the water

we dip our feet in the water,

shrieking in fear at the monsters lurking

below the surface, faking laughter

at our own childishness, stirring up

God knows what monstrosities

that live in the murky, fetid depths of the sea

and our imaginations.
