I am the perfect prey
vulnerable and weak
malleable and persuaded
slow to hear my hunters treading feet
my head is lost in flighty dreams
no, I will not put up a fight
my eyes are transfixed on the deep hues of lust
they are quick to believe my hunters guise
I am the perfect prey
you will never see me flee
my feet stay rooted, buried in the ground
I am a victim who yearns to be a target
as each assailant feeds one by one
I mourn that I could not give more
shredded by their greedy hunger
I am the perfect prey
clever hunters cannot pass an easy meal
but, why should they?
why feel pity for the prey?
when I was the one design
when the moon has finally succumbed to the flirtatious will of night
and even stars grow weary of guarding peaceful slumbers
the sneaky temptress twilight makes her move and slithers through my window
as she glides into my bed, I can tell she is up to her old tricks
my eyes forget to close and my mind forgets to sleep
the darkened outlines of my room crumble as each breath escapes my lips
and now I remember where I've hidden you, blue eyed boy
how strange a sensation to remember your body
a rekindled sullen mood
your arms are a heavy warmth against my waist
and your legs are clumsy giants that wrestle with mine all night
yes, this

I'm obsessed with this song: Dancing by Elisa
Some may remember it, I think, because it's on that show Dancing with the Stars. It's beautiful, but it makes me, well, sad.
It's cathartic though. I like it.
