YoU, the beast in the guise of a human form;
they say you can bury a love's heart by the
heat of your hook--wanton conviction i often
find myself standing by the doorway, fixated
to the unknown. Night after night i await for
your advent call, i hiss at your most abiding
blaze, i love to look into that ruddy eyes--be
enthralled by the flaming intent look of your
eyes mellifluous unto my parching soul. Rest me
to a cavernous sleep, take me where i can see
the crimson of the night--life is wanton,
I beg you to take mine.
