Love me and all will be well. Love me like the soul loves the body. Love me like the lungs loves the oxygen. Love me and all will be well.
Love me even if I start to decay from within. Love me even when I am on the verge of death. Love me even when I am reduced to a skeleton. Love me even if I start to decay from within.
Love my insides; the sloshy intestines and the burning stomach. Love my heart, which throbs in your thought day and night. Love my womb, where I had once reared your seed.
Love my insides; the sloshy intestines and the burning stomach.
Love me as the predator loves the prey. Love me as the monster loves the maiden. Love me as the strigoi loves the blood. Love me as the predator loves the prey.
Wear my skin when I am gone. Kiss my rotting lips before they fall.
And pray each day, that may you be beside me soon, decaying together for eternity. Wear my skin when I am gone.
