Incubus

Incubus 

His icy fingers perform a slow staccato on my tense limbs
Enveloped by a deathly chill
Still I lye on the table in this lair 
Strapped down
Locked in

Putrid and stale, breath deep
Inhaling my fear with desire 
Hearing his feet dragging beside me
Can’t fight him
Won’t win

 Of the capture I have no recollection 
No fight left in me for how to escape 
The monster has hunted victoriously 
He has his prey
He will sin
