Vampirism
Eyes avoid the shaming mirror,
As the cravings coming nearer.
Tingled teeth and falling sane,
Organs swim in blood again.
Muscles tighten to release,
Hold a finger to the crease,
As life force drains and rots away,
Stealing liquor razorblade.
Hold my mouth to pull the flood,
Saliva covers cuts and blood.
Tastes of iron, tastes of rain,
Caress a whore of silkened pain.
Lipstick red on dripping lips,
As I suckle and it sticks.
Leave reason floating in the sea,
As droplet life is leaving me.
