The night wind moans uneasy <br />As dying embers leap, <br />Somnolence enveloping <br />The chambers of the keep; <br /> <br />My soul in transit restless, <br />Sleep eludes me now - <br />A silent voice seducing me, <br />Cold breath upon my brow; <br /> <br />Danger creeps around me <br />On velvet paws of lust, <br />Longing to possess my soul, <br />Transform my flesh to dust; <br /> <br />Icey fingers stroke my flesh, <br />Ignite my wanton skin - <br />Frozen lips upon my neck <br />Now brand me from within; <br /> <br />Drink deep, sweet prince of darkness, <br />Alleviate my fear - <br />Satiate your hunger <br />My salvation drawing near; <br /> <br />Sup my mortal essence, <br />Justify the toll - <br />Ferry me on velvet wings <br />To the dark side of your soul; <br /> <br />Grant me immortality, <br />Extinguish now my light - <br />Shelter me in darkness.................. <br />Commend me to your night. <br /> <br /> <br />HAPPY HALLOWEEN! ! ! ! ! ! <br /> <br />10/28/2009<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dark-surrender/
