Yearning Release

written by: Lokisenna

Lying upon satin sheets she weeps,
Constantly alone.
Pining to find another.

Excruciating heartbeat,
Contemplation of disaster and desire.
Pray for forgiveness, for a swift release.

Awaiting his arrival,
To be blessed with his soft, harmonious voice.
Crimson tears of misfortune fall.

Sweet subtle night slowly blankets the illuminating land,
Yet not the entrancing moon could bestow a smile on her pale, docile face.
Skin yearning for another's touch.

Each breath prolongs he sorrow,
Once a appreciative creature, now morbid, destructive be the path to her demise.
Heart can bleed no longer, for the darkness encases and crystallizes.

Salvation upon one simple gesture,
Yet locked away she scarcely remains.
Fearful of his eye's opening to her questionable ways.

A connection, lure both,
Unable to deny the trust, the embrace.
She grips her knees firmly to her chest.

A single thread holds her shamble pieces together,
The serrated edge draws closer.
She lacks the will to stay, to be bothered.

Oblivious she wished to remain,
Content with the reality that was given to her.
Until they embraced, his heart called out to her.

Observations alluding her wondering mind,
A forgotten sensation awakened.
She dare not reveal to him, for the union could not be expressed.

With another he be longs,
For although tattered her mind aware of the solemn she was damned to.
Emotions suppressed, engulfing her in uncertainty, remorse.

One final attempt collapsing in the heart of the sacred symbol,
Upon the pentacle she beckoned for that which she feared most.
The figure stood before her, bewildered but enticed by the hazy sight.

Slowly she stood, drawing closer to his emanating body,
Eye's never stray, for the truth although undeclared but known surroundings.
Gentle caress amiably on her cheek.

Wishing to draw away,
Taunting her every movement the shadows circle the resonating alter.
Words cannot escape her now quivering lips.

Resist, disregard, refute, untamable,
Her eyes plead.
Yet he knows she longs for more.

His breath slowly creeps down her neck,
Shivers pulsate through her mutilated body.
Silence askew.

He knows what she is,
Understanding that which perplexed ever her.
Why can't she pull away?

Lessons learned,
Life spent.
Blood shed yet he continues.

Seductive lips graze upon his,
Gently he hesitates barely whispering "forgive me."
Fervently he pulled her close, lips never parting.

The sharp blade tainted with remorse embedded in her back,
Eye's wide open, so thankful.
He laid her down one last time.

No longer will she year, crave,
Heart filled with grace, love all which she missed.
Eye's see the one who released her.

A single tear clear as a diamond so pure,
His heart torn yet wisdom bestowed.
Keep close the embrace and kiss of release.

Final sigh of relief,
Her vibrant eyes blur one last time.
Completeness of sacrifice, of love.
