Cauterize.
Burn me to oblivion,
let me cling, desperate tendrils
to your being.
Crave me.
I'll leave you desperate,
an unknown addiction;
I'll be your religion.
Your cruel god.
I'll atone for your sins;
sacrifice me to me.
Can't you see?
For a mear mortal you're astounding.
Iron thick on my tongue,
I still taste it.
Your essence fulfills me;
I crave it.
Addicted.
In nearly every aspect
you are
what I want to be to you.
Something worthy of love,
devotion.
You're my religion.
