Shivering with awe and delight.
"Here is my throat", I said
as I bowed my head in silence to him.
Behold my white flesh
shining in the velvet darkness.
Take me now and I will be...
Yes, I will be yours forever!
There I stood bare and willing,
as the blood, my blood
was streaming down this naked body,
my naked body.
Gushing out of the wounds,
enfeebled I was sinking to the floor.
"Cold", I thought, "so cold the stones,
but colder I'll be soon!"
(...still not enough...)
"This is the moment, my beautiful, beloved one,
the time has come to send a farewell to the sun,
to cross the threshold and leave
all these mortal dregs behind!
You shall be
flesh of my flesh and blood of my blood...
Let me take what you have to give,
let me take and you shall receive...
Feel the beat of dead heart,
feel the beat of my heart... and drink...
as I have done.
Drink, my beautiful, beloved one!"
A new flower in the ancient bouquet,
another rose in the garden of darkness
that will never see the day,
that will never see the day...
