I remember...

[meridianpassage]

Playing with your mind
the morph into
a creature
with quick and biting
tongue

I absorbed
everything that was
you

Your pen, your song
your blood, I melted
boundaries in my heat
to consume
you

I knew the smell
of
innocent blood you
smelled so enticing
your boast so
open you hid
nothing
not even your fear

You, the bravest I
knew you saw me
and stayed

There was nothing
but sounds of your
fear
I waited for you to run,
I waited
I waited

Was I so beautiful
in all my terror
that you could not go?
Was I so dark
that I froze your light?

You felt me
crouch and smile
in the darkness
and
did not move

Still I toss my
head, fighting
the enticing
curiosity of
you
Jack Frost

Still I feel the pull
still I lick my dripping
lips to savor
what is your blood
and intrigue.
