Beast....

With both hands open must I slay this beast
that does creep and crawl and mew its pain
from these darkened corners of my soul
this part that does whisper your name
in endless repeated soliloquy
of rising gasps with tortured sighs
Must I also slay it for these dreams
nay these horrid nightmares the beast does bring
leaving me always in tormented sweat
twisted sheets, torn up beds
with tears for what will never be
streaking slow upon these wasted cheeks.
Always the beast starts with dream
one of glorious beauty aching this my heart
back lit by warm summer sun
on a glade of sweetest grass and butterflies
that do flutter for joy around ......
snow capped mountains ring this glade
tinkling brook its music made
all so pale...
so pale...
next to this beauty
that is
you
for this part would i die a thousand deaths
to have more and more such dreams caress
but this beast ...
this beast within the deepest corners of I
takes a painters artist brush
and washes red over beyond and all
the red of lust,  the red of fall
this beast that is me takes you in his arms
crushes you without fight
to the sward of sweetest grass
then with lips so hot from heated breath
kisses you long, long and deep
while these my hands ...no im afraid.....yet must i not lie
these hands strip you slow
of that lightest summer dress
till naked to world and all
on grass so green and sweet
these hands of mine begin to roam
over hills and valleys of softest flesh
seeking of each spot a secret
of how to make thee moan
with this sound still more felt
then heard in this red painted world
find i then another spot
one that will make thee twitch, shudder
all this whiles still yet my lips press yours
ours tongues locked in battle sharp
then to hear thee gasp
as my fingers have found a most interesting spot
one that need my lips caress
more than any other
slow this i play, suckle, stroke this moist secret cleft
nay i did not say beast for this is me
me that i find within this dream
of all these wants, desires...
needs
with both hands open
must i slay this beast
this beast called I
stop this monster from ever touching
this purity of you
with this animal desire
of I
