Lustful Healing

I saw her across the bar, looking beautiful
I saw that look in her eyes but noticed it not
I was alone, living in another world.

My heart broken by another, my heart aching
My veins pumped with alcohol, I felt only hurt

My vision blurred as the night drew in, 
As I trudged my way from bar to bar.

I seeked only slight comfort in the drink

The night drew on and I happened upon a club
She was there again, across the room

She was moving with grace and fluidity
It was intoxicating to watch

Her eyes caught mine, it was like a dream
I could feel my heart race, my mind flutter
I missed my love so much, and yet not at all

She closed in, seeming to move like the smoke in the room
The closer she came the more i forgot of my past

With her milky complection she seemed to glow
Her fingers gently carressed my cheek

It had urgency and yet seemed tentative

It was an almost perfect mix
She brushed my skin and made my body tingle

The lust built as she whispered words
She serenaded my soul and heart

We left, together, she took me away
Her sharp teeth felt so good as they took hold
Ripping into my flesh, a pain so lustful

With frightning strenth she pinned me,
Draining my heart of all feeling

All there can be is lust
All there can be is death

All can be is her draining of my Soul
