Love is a Man of Shadows
That silent step
That misty gleam
He is here
To get me
Those sapphire eyes
Hold me in captivity
Bound by desire
He makes me his slave
With jet black hair
Swept across his face
A void of endless shadow
Consumes me
Alabaster skin pale as the moon
Shines in the dusk
To shame the moonlight
And blind me
With agility he walks
Slowly approaching
Determined
Eyes set on me
Steps as quiet as rain drops
With force outweighing gods
Closer he comes
To have me as his
Broken
Damaged
Failed
Malfunctional
Is how he should see me
But no
With grace he steps
Pit
Pat
Pit
Pat
Never stopping, he comes toward me
I sit in nervousness and uncertainty
That he may get to close
And if he should
What will he do to me?
To tense, to overpowered to move
No chance of escape
I sit and stare in the eyes of ruin
And wait for him to kill me
He stops
At my feet he stands
Towering
His eyes push me down further
The pressure controls me
But in one fluid movement
He kneels to my level
I can’t face him
But he stares at me anyway
In a swift second
I am against the cold earth
Hair raveled, dress wrinkled
He holds me down
Fear
Fear
Fear
All that I am able to feel
Is nothing
Is everything
As Fear consumes me
A moonlit hand caresses my cheek
Fingers warm against ay icy lips
Fear subsiding
What is happening to me?
His endless eyes gaze into mine
A bittersweet gaze
One with clouded intention
As he passionately holds me
This feeling
This is no longer fear
No…
What has overcome me?
Fiery embers spew from his silent breath
And slither down my neck
And at my ear he stops
Bound to reveal to me his intentions
“ I have been waiting for you
My love
For this moment
For eternity, just you and me”
Why…me? Is what I barely say
And with a lifeless giggle he said
Everything about him
Ends with “me”
