Empath In flames (29.08.1985 / Australia)
[Lust vs. Desire]
I look over my shoulder,
I see this Smile,
I hunger for.
She looks deep within my soul.
Ecstasy my body reads.
She walks away, stops… then stares to inspect me.
Does she want me to follow?
I would walk on glass shards to reach for her.
As my bloody footprints are left behind.
The further I travel,
The darker the world becomes.
My confidence soars,
Like an unwritten note of love.
I can see her shadow…
I walk towards her, as she kisses me
I can feel the coldness on her lips.
Her breath shutter’s as her eyes tun to midnight.
Our bodies entwined,
By a vigorous energy of a heated passion.
As she bites my lower lip, and cuts my back.
With her black finger nails.
I can smell death in her hair.
The pain is so sensual,
As she digs her teeth deep in my neck,
She asks If I wish to live…
Immortally in her arms.
She slowly drains me.
As I slowly fade,
I tell her in my weakest breath.
“I want to die for you, ”
“So I can live again…
Only knowing you”
Now it is I who lust’s, for the taste of blood.
While she desires for me.

Wow! This is so true of lust, the second stanza stands out for me. I can identify with it. Brilliant. HG: -) xx
