My Love

By Gideon Lost

I am a Hedonist
For your pleasurable fiction
And you my Devil
Are a sadistic Saint bent over
The damnation of my soul
Wriggling and writhing
About our double helixed fate
You, tortured by my Want
And I, nailed to your Pride
No matter how swollen your Arrogance becomes
It can never fill my Need
A necrotic umbilicus bloated and black
Clinging and repelling
Balancing us
As we plummet to Hell
Spiraling down
Unable to save one another
Un-wanting to Bail
Daring each other to pull
The ripping cord
Rooted to our hearts
On either End
The smell of your flesh
Burns my yellow eyes
Swinging through each other's sour wind
Endlessly forever and ever and ever and ever.

Holy (or UN-holy) shit. This is beyond description for me. The visual that came to my mind's eye while reading this is something that Rembrandt would paint. Magnificent work, Gideon.

"A necrotic umbilicus bloated and black" is fucking awesome. The dark, hellish melodrama of this piece makes me warm and fuzzy inside. Great write. Off to read more...
