Darkness large
Shadows fall
He visits
Standing tall
I cringe
Skin crawl
Darkness large
Shadows fall
*
He kissed my mind
with image clear
The one I lust
my sweetheart dear
“You can take her
Now, here.”
He kissed my mind
with image clear
*
I love her
yet I lust
I want her flesh
yet I must
Keep my soul
keep her trust
*
I challenge my dark, mystic guest
“I see your suit –
now show me the rest.”
He pauses.
“I am Prince of Fire –
to see me? You must jest!”
I pressed my cause.
He lifted the hood
with beauteous grace
and within
lay my own face.
