Violet Fire

Fallen drops of lavender and 
violet,
broken shards of amethyst 
glass,
stain my hands in purple 
nightmares,
as I watch the time slowly 
pass.
I close my eyes, as I start to 
drown,
in my own black velvet sea.
Moonlight crawls across the 
ocean,
aching to save what could be.
Something whispers in my ear,
maybe just the wind,
or an angel, nude except for 
the night,
to bring me to my end.
Wings that shimmer ebony 
iridescence,
dripping so blue, they're black,
wrap around my decaying 
body,
ice dripping down my back.
A faceless name, she carries 
me,
across the violet flames,
and lies me in her obsidian 
sheets,
to kiss away my pain.
Breast to breast, she devours 
me,
the object of her desire.
One last kiss, she leaves me,
to be raped by her violet fire.
