Caged Animal
Caged Animal
My brooding darkness
Thinks on you today
Impatient animal
It paces my rib cage
Back and forth
Back and forth
As steady
As my heart
Your treasured image
Boils away my resolve
To unleash its blood
Animal blood
Dark
And wanting
It tore at your dress
Strips you naked
Those images I created
Of fired eyes
Rake my nails
Over you
Hungry talons of desire
Animal to devour you
Its starving burning
Appeased by each and every mouthful
Its strength overwhelming
Pins you
Holds you in a desperate struggle
Has you animal
Takes you animal
Lusts animal
Loves animal
Paces my rib cage
Back and forth
Back and forth
As steadily
As my heart
