Bride by Night

My darkness is surreal and complete.
I am blind as a human in this night
And I know nothing of fear, but sweet
Caresses of underrated delight.

As if my eyes have been lost to the sun
yet forgetting how bright it could be.
My body undulating beneath his heat
While he consumes me voraciously.

When the day comes, he goes before I wake
I justify him a great fantasy,
That only my lonely... mind could ever make
up my husband, but this child within me.
