An Invocation

You have acquired my bones, 
my blood is yours
You are the taste in my mouth

You have taken my eyes 
looked through them and smirked 
Your kiss so cold 
within me a furnace
Your smile like sunrise

happy by Your side so long, 
so I do not starve in some madness
while I wish I was breathing You in

by Your side in that morning
rising but our heads still rested
just the light streaming in

I held Your face in marigold glow
of new day just born,
and still suspect it was only a dream.
