It is cold whisper of dark, that called you at last, Do you remember that first kiss in the evening? Or how you first sipped of December wine? How easy we forget the small gestures of surrender.
These tastes we take now for granted, abandoned like small monsters, from a childhood scream. Then some evening,the date not worth recollection,it ends cold, precise,you lying on your bed, broken by hunger, sheets in your hand's grasp, gasping for one more breath, a last glance, faded whisper.
I, your love, your guide through the cool dark, kiss your neck gently, to taste that last drip of your life, falling from my lips.
