Your Davine

And through the starry eyes of wonton whispers, 

can you feel the embrace.

Does it pull you in? And yet, you push and pray. 

Dont go, dont go, why wont you just stay?

I am not your enemy, though maybe your evil. 

Come and release, run with your rebel. 

There was a time, and a place.

Where emotions did race. 

Where everything broke down, and I started to drownd. 

Coming undone, lettin go. 

How could this be, 

how could you know?

I cry, fold into myself;

I see beauty in these wonders, 

yet everything I touch - 

its evil, only lust. 

Eyes so dark, lips red wine;

Come with love, save me from time. 

But I am only your darkness, 

an empty abyss. 

I need you, come closer;

Give your fruit to my vine.

And yet, with your lips so close to mine;

I...I can not decide;

Will I feast of fortune, 

Would my heart survive?

Or shall I leave you laying, 

and die without your davine?

Wow. This is a pretty intense poem of guilt and dark desire. The narrator could be a vampire writing about a mortal, or a mortal writing about a vampire. That's how good this is. The imagery is sultry, sexy, it makes me think of sleepless nights and sweat drenched bed sheets.

This one speaks to me in a way that makes me shudder. I can always count on you for creating something that is very visceral.

My favorite stanza is;

"Eyes so dark, lips red wine;
Come with love, save me from time.
But I am only your darkness,
an empty abyss. "

It makes me think of your favorite stanza from "Refrain".

Excellent piece.

Thanks, actually, your Refrain kinda brought this on a little. Got me to thinking about my own demons and all. So you should be thanking yourself.

You popped this out just now? Very impressive. I'm glad I could help inspire you. Seriously though, you have no idea how much I missed talking to you.

[Dewella~Vintella]
