"Swallow You Whole"

Love’s most lovely symbolism,

A perfectly twisted sense of affection.

Devouring you, bones and all is so...gutteral, mystical.

I hold your waist, burying my head in your neck

Canines tracing, digging, though never in haste.

I bite your layers off, my fingers delving, holding in the reck.

My wish to open you whole

To trace your organs and vessels;

For hell be damned, I want to consume your soul.

I want every secret, every thought, every emotion, POSSESS, even the rhythm of your heart

where I nestle.

Your phalanges are my necklace,

Clavicles holding me close in a deathy-warm embrace.

Rib-cage, the most glamorous corset to my dress.

An art so perfect, I can only, only marvel at the finesse.

Worship you wholly with an intention to devour

Infest your every bone and every crack

Drink from your life source till you tremble and cower

Let my heart be one with yours, beating in the places of the lack.

Disgustingly grotesque and exuberant

Yet, how do I love you without swallowing you whole?

The need to consume and to be consumed is iridescent.

I can just hack and claw at your soul.

Absolute carnage,

Before I settle down in the corners of your curves and every crevice,

Bleed you dry, all the while filling your wreckage.

Souls merged, my heart beating within yours; Throat choked, JUST these feelings can never

suffice.
