Edging Light
You're in my office
(I'm often)
thinking of the secret-not so secret
attraction between us
Is it right
It might be...
there's meaning
Hypnotized by the delicate strands
n the back of your neck
Imagining me laying
on top of you
(in sweat)
Is it alright
It might be alright
Because I want to...
put out the light
I'm choking
You're hoping
for the end to be closer.....
(than not) I won't stop
I won't bend
Let me in
Make you bend, reddened skin - I'm a "closer"
Bull: full cocked
Is it right
It's alright
For me - I'll just put out the light
My fingers
wrapped around
your neck
Bodies heaving, heavy breathing...
Scratches
Bleeding...
and sweat
Then, turning red
with a face full of bed
No - not dead; not quite yet - you wear welts like a badge of honor
And through it
you prey
for me to put out
...the light
