I clutch you with a fierce hope,
a selfish intensity,
crushing your fragile arms
to feel the kiss of your teeth
those green knives,
those tiny deaths,
O, sanguine perfection,
create for me a field of
your jagged armour,
decapitate your cusp of beauty
and leave me your fatal corpse,
that holy stem,
my morbid love,
so I may bleed, or sleep.
Darling flower,
you are too merciful,
- such shallow stabbings!
If only your were made of glass,
I'd marry a million of you
and bathe in your pristine pieces,
your colorless shards,
and I'd stain you with my love,
that endless wound,
as red as you once were.

Uh, Wow, Stephy. It's been a while since I read something from you, and boy! Am I glad you're back! It is a treat to read your words again.
As usual, I love the stagger in this, the images, the POW, and all of the minute messages and meanings.
I have missed reading your words!
Welcome back!
*huge hugs*
