The sun's up but
I don't care for it
I wasn't made for daylight
Shadows are my home

That's not your life
I've been pulling
Prodding, almost
Forcing

Let's strip away the masks
The clothes
Any pretense at
Decency or decorum

I want your body
Your legs wrapped
Tightly against my
Flesh

Your thighs
Your stomach
Your *******
Your arms
Your eyes
Your heart

They all need to be kissed

I want to take it all
But I can't
I need to
Keep you out of the
Shadows
Out of the dark

When you leave the shadows
Take me with you
Let me be reborn to
Light
Let me be as you were
Meant to be
