Image for the poem until it hurts

until it hurts

In it with the hour...
Sleepy thoughts,
Sleepy talk…

Hazy song...
In it with the beat,
Sharp teeth and bruises…
Anything that amuses -
Restless fingers, those that linger,
Of moonlight.

It's the soft, warm hug
That can change course at any time…
And frankly, I
Wouldn't mind.

It's the reckless strum to the strings,
The velvet when we sing -
And the bottle of water after -
Condensation and perspiration and
Secrets that seep deep into hollows
After.

I want you -
To bite into my moonlight.

Until it's red,
Until it bleeds.
Until it's lights out.

Until it's death and I have to catch my breath -
Until that big heart stop -

- exhale -

Until it shakes,
Until it hurts.

Until it.
Hurts.

Songs and vampire fiction put me in a kind of mood, and here's the result.
