BURY ME

spring-276014_960_720

Nightfall crawls restless

Inside invisible veins

Caressing my shoulders

With shadowy hands

Kissing my lips, my body

Feeding my hungry aches

Anxious for its presence

I lie still under its weight

Miles from daybreak

Praying that night

Will absorb my lust

And bury me

Underneath fields of light

  1. The night lays cold
    Chilling the blood inside
    Gnawing at my hands
    With skeletal fingers
    Drawing the air from my lungs
    As I feed her aching hunger
    Desperate for escape
    I struggle, futile against the weight
    Miles from daybreak
    Praying that the day
    Will satiate the night
    And rescue me
    From empty fields of night
