A callous darkness hides in the Haze of your burnished body You run your icy fingers through My gossamer hair and a hazel fuzziness Leaks through your chocolate eyes. I mutter silent requests of mercy As your intrepid skin steals into the Fragility of my crystal soul, reducing it To splattered relics of harrowing passion. Your lust burns like spilled neglect And tastes like rotten coffee; With every painful sip that strikes My lips, it sings like a sonnet of love And with every tepid sip that incinerates My throat, it burns like a gentle eulogy. You’re the parchment, stealing the Expressions of my artless love, and the obsidian ink tattooing my fragile heart With gestures of an intricately Woven melody of a foreseen loss.
