fighting back silent triumph no one believed but here i stand ready to tear down the door break this seal and damn the gods four thousand years of dust swept away to an instant before and now here i am ready blow after blow it takes yet the door succumbs to my will through its shattered remains stagger i to find her sealed away for all time well time is nigh... strength i never knew i sweep the lid from the sarcophagi hair of midnight sheen floated free of the wrappings i near to weep from shape revealed under torch this fire i need for me to see all of her perfect free must i see i find my hands now of their own tearing loose linen strips with my need strange but i found it not so only this hunger that drives me skin..... not dust or dehydrated remains but true... soft .... flesh and a part of me knows im madd but soft living flesh meets my gaze i stopped ready to run with fear i found i reeked but i had to i had ... to... see... a gasp that was not of mine her rib cage rose fell to rise again now with a will i fell to the wraps tearing them all free what evil might be loosed was never a thought as i stood before as she stood before my perfection my grace my heart my very soul forever hers as i knelt before to allow her to drink her fill of my life ..... and where now is he throaty chuckle here i tap my chest his heart was and is now... forever... mine! |
