Behelit

My love for you has grown beyond Plato's realm.

Your absence rends my skin and sets my bones ablaze.

Yet you remain clueless about the stakes entwined in this gamble.

You yearned for a consuming love like lava spilling from a volcano.


Now it stands before you, waiting to be claimed.

Take me, your loyal follower and devoted servant.

With quivering hands, I have parted flesh and bled.

Our hands touch, bound by a holy knot, at this altar.


Today, I give myself to you entirely.

Witness as I bleed upon my Behelit.

Thus, my sacrifice to you commences.

A ritual of the night I perform with faith.


I whisper my one wish like a prayer and close my eyes.

I ask not for accolades or fame but rather to be with you.

I pray not for success or riches but rather to be seen by you.

I yearn not for eternal life but rather enough to grow old with you.


Take my bones and hide within my hollow ribcage.

Take my sinews and use them to protect yourself.

Take my hands and caress yourself as you desire.

Take my battered heart and make it your home.


Let my voice calm your mind in the dark tempest.

Let my arms embrace you to keep your dreams warm.

Let my legs carry us for miles through the roads of life.

Take all of me and make me wholly and solely yours.


Be my bane and sordid curse.

Poison me with your essence.

Smother me with your loving arms.

Overdose me with your sweet passion.


I want to worship you like the goddess you are.

To see your smile and hear your sweet laughter.

I wish to bask in the glow of your fleeting flames,

And be the light that never dies on a cold night.


I want to be poisoned by your adoration.

To be taken by surprise, utterly vulnerable.

I yearn to be held and kissed in ways unimaginable.

To get drunk on your love and wake up next to you.


I want to be consumed by the voracious flames of your love.

Let me be swallowed by the gaping maw of your dark soul.

I yearn to be seen with you, so the world envies our ecstasy.

Let me be bathed under your blinding, blessed silver moonlight.


I know love is a double-edged sword, but I am not afraid to bleed.

I know it is a steep fall into the abyss, but I know you will catch me.

I know I may lose myself in the depths of your soul, but your eyes are my compass.

I know it is a love big enough to ruin me, but I am not afraid to lose if it's with you.


Stay and marvel at my fleeting light like a dying sun.

Stay and watch me wilt away like a dried-up rose.

Stay and cradle me through tempestuous nights.

Stay and simply love me as I am.


Rearrange my body to your liking.

Recalibrate my thoughts selfishly.

Reprogram my brain and enthrall me.

Replace my bleeding heart with your own.


I knew the risks, and I accepted them all.

You know in your soul I only see you.

I know my place, and I will live up to it.

You know in your heart I am loyal.


Break my heart and mend it anew.

Rip me to shreds and rebuild me stronger.

Let me write you a billion letters.

Your love is like poison, yet I crave you.


I wish to take a chance.

I hope you will do the same.

I promise to become your blessing.

Only if you promise to become my bane.
