Blood Velvet Dance

Breathless I wait
For you to appear
My devil-god lover
Then, as soft as the night
You are here
I have chosen my fate
Seduced by your ethereal beauty

You come to me
Translucent white flesh
Resplendent in moonlight
I stare into your eyes and I'm lost
You kiss my lips
I dance with chains of stars
In the dark womb of night

The first kiss of your tongue
Slithers sharp
Across my neck
The honeyed stab -
A taste of blood wine

I surrender to you
And you draw me under
Down into black velvet sleep
You are perfect, divine
Yet heartless and cruel
My celestial demon
Let me dance with you, forever

Take me with you
To the Crystal Ring
That we may never part
Lest your love destroy me
