Lucid Beast

Feeling the cold within my bones,

A voice of elusion I've never known.

Double-edged and metallic as ice,

Into my vision its blade did slice.

Dripping now with blood, bright red,

Laughing now as I stand dead.

Frightened chills run along my spine,

Claiming a soul that once was mine.

Standing before me this beast of dread,

Clutching my heart and stroking my head,

Smiling a smile of glistening teeth,

Licking the blade before returning to sheath.

Pale eyes pierce me whole,

Cradling my crystalline skull.

I give myself defiantly; no longer a fight,

This lucid beast enveloping my sight.

Take me now; love me deep,

Kiss me tenderly as I sleep.

I'm yours now; flesh and bone,

Eagerly awaiting the vast unknown.
