Invitation to darkness
I looked into your eyes
and saw my eternity.
I no longer existed
but in that empty space.
I looked away,
but I’d already been captured.
My hands trembled,
and my heart began to race.
I heard your voice and
my entire past just vanished.
I now no longer have
my own identity.
I’m indistinguishable now
from your true essence.
And I lack the will to
desire to be freed.

I felt your touch and
my soul was abandoned.
I will worship at the altar
where you reign.
I’m your servant and
you’re my inspiration.
My worth is valued by
the currency of your name.
I felt your words as I
listened to your message.
In your eyes I could
taste your energy.
I could hear all of my
future in your presence.
And my soul called out
for this to always be.

I now yearn for your
seductive touch to guide me.
Show me the way to
the depths of emptiness.
Hold me tightly
in your embrace,
I surrender to your grace.
I inhale your sweet essence
with every breath.

Will you consume me
with your dark persuasion?
And will your hunger lead
to bliss or to despair?
In your eyes I see
esctasy and disaster.
Will you choose?
Or split my soul
so that it's shared?
The web woven of your
secrets and endless mysteries
unfold, like so many petals
on a dying bloom.
With each revelation
that’s unearthed
I find myself longing to explore
the catacombs that hide
your darkest truths.

Invite me into your secret
maze of wretchedness.
Console me with your
captivating gaze.
I relinquish myself to
your beguiling presence.
And will proclaim my
fidelity for all my days.
