Devour Me
My furry fire a silky rouch;
A smoky dire a burning torch
Like a cloudy day, much on my grey soldier;
Lightning filled eyes, grave with desire and danger
Endure, forever free;
Devour me
For prey born a slave;
You crave only to live
Nor shall any of them pray;
For what you kill this day
Lost feet stumble upon your path;
Bones found, where meat packs with teeth
Chase me whole;
Howl my soul
Catch my breath;
I'm yours 'til death
Cut the ice and snow;
With claw all that you know
Colour me slow with your paw;
And my red on white shall flow
Herd me into your frame;
To lead me home
Run me down;
‘til the break of dawn
In the first light of your shadow my sherperd;
Sweep me away like a flowing willow in your legend
