Obsession Confession -

I wear your handwriting
like a chain of snake bites
all around my hot, vulnerable body,
the poison is not wrong,
it is beauty to the bone,
tender on the flesh,
love in bleeding song,
I learned to stop fighting,
in the ecstacy of the smooth writhing,

Your unwavering dialect delved
into the core of me, relentlessly, 
you taught me an erotic braile unveiled,
you've been naked in my blood stream 
with a whispering scream,
revealing the soul of Poetry,

We have discovered the sweet
torture of destiny,
we feed one another ambrosia
not of mere flesh
but of desire fresh,
a passion born of purgatory hysteria,

I lick your lines
as if they are lifelines
to life with no sins,
you are my sex with no regrets,
you are my Angel through days complex,

Your fangs be flames
that nestle my heart beyond love crimes,
you are my joy,
You are my wicked divine Princess -

Dear Justin, I really love the passionate nature of this love poem. Especially the opening line where youv mentioned “ snake bites” i dont think iv ever read anywhere such an original line! So creative and the slight rhymes and subtle use of alliterations and the obsessive devotion that ebbs and flows throughout is just soul stirringly beautiful! A fave for me this is and i must say you have a beautiful way with romanticizing the pulse. Without using inappropriate words, how you use metaphors is praise worthy! Pleasure reading this. Thank you for sharing and for joining my contest. Sending you light, always! Congratulations on your first place win in my contest
