Asking Nothing, Wanting Something

Asking Nothing, Wanting Something
She stood there in the dark,
Blood soaked,
Staring at me,
Blood dripping from her teeth,
Asking nothing,
Wanting something,
Waiting for me to move,
Relaxed pose,
Ready to spring,
Her lips curved in a smile,
Asking nothing,
Wanting something,
I remember her from a dream,
Flying high,
Diving low,
Sinking her talons into my flesh,
Now she waits,
Cold as ice,
As I watch it’s hard to breathe,
Asking nothing,
Wanting something,
Blood trickles down her chin,
Her tongue tastes,
And licks it clean,
I am frozen and cannot move,
My heart racing,
Her tongue keeps tasting,
Asking nothing,
Wanting something,
I suddenly understand and bare my throat,
Her eyes brighten,
Her talons tighten,
I submit to her warm embrace,
Blood draining,
Life waning,
I search her eyes one last time,
She’s asking everything,
Demanding my all,
And I find myself sinking into darkness,
Asking something,
Wanting nothing.
