Delicious torment.
Satisfying as a scab.
Patient, violent, and kind.
The masochists' wine.

Fruition fermented.
Succulent, seductive.
A painful map of desire.
Terrifying and everlasting.
Your ghost sits well over my frame.
My visage as honest.

Comfortable and compatible.
Our cracked hearts sprout
A flowering display
Of fingers laced around sleep.
