You use a pseudonym perhaps better suited than your given name.
the click of heels on pavement
Spread throughout the world of fantasy with no hint as to the true origins, branching out without tangible roots, enveloping and magic.
puffs of breath floating in the old stale air
My man of the red earth, you are my ground, let me place these roots to steady you.
eyes staring out from the darkness
You see the beauty in the world and maximize it, cultivating brightness and emotion, let me show you the same within yourself.
the chase-stumbling-caught-impact
Our hearts need not bleed if we stitch them together.
squeezing, short of breath
Charge my spirit and I'll help yours to fly, yearn for me, and I will find a way to you.
impact, pain, staggered breathing
Forget the world and all of it's concerns, forget the word "if."
the flick of a knife
In our world, darling, fear is the drug, not the bane.
threatening release from mortal bonds while the earthly body is bound tightly
I'd carve all your names into myself, keep them at least scrawled on my skin forever, knowing that I belonged, if only you would know you were worthy of it.
teasing out the cries that were stifled in the night, the tears too scared to be shed
We all have demons, but some of us know how to embrace and dance with them.
the demon knods, a greeting, an invitation, a knowing smirk of all the darkness within
Power is a gift that must be deserved, as is love, and security allows for challenge.
chains weighing down the limbs, holding the body secure, calming the panic or encouraging it in order to give better future relief
Without darkness, there can be no light, extremity allows for contrast, emphasis, and pleasure as you well know my love.
taking mind, body, soul
Let's find just how bright this darkness allows the world to look.
