Dark Loves

They wouldn’t understand me or
The way I feel tonight.
The way the passion seizes me.
I long to hold you tight
And feel you cool beneath my fire,
Our life within my veins.
You’ll never want another love
I’ll free you from your pains.
I’ve watched you now for nights on end,
I’ve hunted, stalked and preyed.
My hunger reaches for your soul -
Be still, be not afraid.
It’s not for you, this world of shades,
My kiss will send you on,
To other circles, other planes,
Where all my loves have gone.
