Oh, Darling, How You Bleed

By SaintNHB

Oh, Darling! do you dare?
With skin so smooth and fair
Oh, Darling dont you care
that this travel is beaten oh so rare?

Eyes that pierce like nails
(driven by a stake)
So deep I drown in your existence

Oh, Darling! do you see?
Such sweet misery
Oh, Darling do you need
to travel so recklessly?

Lips that trap me like a coffin
(even after you go)
You confine yourself to loneliness

-Saint

    Wonderful. Such crystallized icicles of cold pain, such crystalline view of suffering. "Lips that trap me like a coffin" Perfect line.

    NHB, a vampire theme shows in this: fair skin (aversion to sun), hypnotic eyes, stake, coffin, the travel references...the final line is intriguing...
