Embrace
I sense you coming long before you arrive. The night is cold and the rain pelts like stones against my face. Steam rises from the gasping earth. I know you're there, I feel you all around me. I move faster, but can't escape you. Ducking under cover, escaping the rain's relentless pour, I tremble from the cold. I stand quietly, in a small pool of light, the blackness surrounding me like a mourning veil.
You're getting close. You make no effort at stealth. You know I can't get away, I know it too and I wait for you. Floating from the night you appear suddenly, though your every movement is slow, graceful and filled with malicious love. I don't look at you, but know you're standing beside me, close. I don't want to, but my eyes are drawn to you. I know what I'll find and I don't want to see it.
Your face, soft cold skin and deep eyes, all framed by hair black as death. I want to turn away, but when my eyes meet yours I can't leave and you hold me. Your subtle pink lips part in a smile that reminds me of angels, but chills my soul to ice. Cold fingers touch my cheek. You're caressing me, pulling me to you with no effort. I know I'm yours and I don't want to fight you anymore. My body screams with desire for you and I submit to it.
Delicate lips brush mine, supple and moist you press a kiss against me. I fear to touch you, but as my mind screams to flee I slide my arms around your slender waist and hold you. I feel you move down my cheek, you leave a trail of passion along my chin and down my neck. My entire being is aflame. Tears sear torturous paths down my face, I want to run but am unwilling to leave you. I cry out meekly as you push into me, small daggers piercing my skin and my pulse beats hard. My body is alive as you take me and I know I will never leave you.
The light has dimmed and my mind is blank before the darkness closing in. You return to my eyes and I see you over me. Radiant and beautiful your deep crimson lips smile lusciously. You are angelic and gorgeous. I go to eternity willingly, exultant in having been touched by you.
