kiss me

kiss me
fear me not for I want something else
than your life.
I want your soul, your heart,
your warm skin and heated blood
to sustain me and fill me.
to warm my lips
and fill my lungs with your surrender.
to bring me to the surface
that I may know the taste of life
if only for the moments
that it remains with you.
remembering that you,
knowing it would mean your death
yet in the knowledge of my desire
that runs to love and passion
you could not not press lips
to seal your fate and my hunger
and had the courage and desire to
kiss me
