Desire

“Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end.”

I had almost forgotten what it was like...

The simple feeling of walking by your side along the banks of the Seine. You turn your head in my direction... the warm spring breeze blowing wisps of ebony silk about your face. Silver moonlight is reflected in those deep pools of green as your gaze meets mine and I am bewitched once again, my soul a willing captive.

We pass by mortal lovers sitting hand in hand on the wooden bench, staring out at the black water. They can never understand this. What we share is far more intense than anything they could ever know... a pale shadow, an imperfect replica of what we have. I stop suddenly and push you into the shadows, pressing you firmly against the cement embankment. My lips find yours and steal your breath away. You taste of the past and of a broken heart that time will never heal, but that is all part of the reason I desire you.

A part of me yearns to pull you down into this darkness, but I’ve walked that path before. I want to crash and burn... to push you away while at the same time drawing you closer, to keep you at an arms reach when all I really want is to pull you in and crush your soul with mine. I want to lock you into this world where chaos and destruction reign... where love and hate clash violently and the line between the two becomes blurred. I want to reside in that place where the only thing that can save me from myself is the sound of your beating heart.

Time to fan the spark and let the fire blaze anew.
