Midnight Mistress
By: JoAnna Martin
 
Alone in the park,
gazing into the dark, 
What spell does the moon hold on me?
Since you've always despised
the bright sun-kissed skies
only the mystifying nights leave me in your company.

Your soul is so compelling.
My love, there is no telling
how far I will let you take me.
Coaxingly, you pull me near,
gently whispering in my ear,
promising to give me eternity.

You vow to grant all my wishes
while covering me in kisses
as you elegantly sweep me into your arms.
Then into the night,
together we take flight,
while I'm trapped in your enticing charm.

Our lust is a flame,
wildly burning, untamed
as you seduce me with a feverish caress.
You trace my lips with your finger,
into my eyes your gaze lingers
before we collapse into passion enshadowed by darkness.

As my mortality dies,
your name my soul cries
as I succumb to you with no signs of resistance.
Though once alone and forlorn,
my passion has been reborn
as I am enrobed by your nocturnal existence.

Through the exchange of dark blood,
in my veins your heat floods,
down my cheek the blood-stained tears run.
Though tainted with pain,
the pleasure remains
and I know this unification can never be undone.

You have lured my away
from the light of the day
with the enchantment of your fatal kiss.
My heart has surrendered 
to your wicked splendor
as I become your midnight mistress.
