....
Here you are, dearest.
Take this scarlet part of me.
Quench that gnawing thirst.
It just stings a bit
A quick bite, then pure numbness
I close my eyes, calm.
You have me now, love
That part of me you wanted
Warms your still, cold veins.
More or less mortal
I swear, I don't mind one bit.
You are so worth it.
Eyes glowing crimson
You tell me you feel alive.
I smile, gratified.
You won't see me weep
For this loving sacrifice:
Forever sounds fine.
