The Essence Of My Life

My desire and my love for you

Knows not limits, nor boundaries.

For it is an insatiable, un-quenchable longing.

A longing, which reams the edge of insanity itself.

For without you in my life,

All things lose their substance and meaning.

Thus delivering unto my broken and sorrowful soul,

deaths sweet and merciful blow.

For without you…

There is not a me.

So rise my love,

Rise from the slumber of thy night.

And give unto me, but by single kiss

The essence of my life.
