A Succubus s Whisper

Aren’t you afraid?
That I might rip your heart
Right out of your chest—
And simply keep it
As a souvenir
In the depths of my memory?

My lips are burning,
I give you wild, feverish kisses.
It’s hard for an ordinary man—
You might forget everything
And fall forever
Into the charm of my chains...

I like your scent.
I'm nocturnal,
A beast in silk.
They call me a succubus,
I enter hearts without knocking—
And take everything I desire.

Bring me your deepest craving,
Your purest love.
I’ll devour it all...
But often, my victim
Becomes nothing more
Than my faithful shadow,
Following me
Perhaps for all eternity.

The altar is already built—
For a thousand years,
You’ve fallen to your knees,
Murmuring prayers.
Oh darling, just take
My twisted adoration!

But only promise me
You’ll never leave me here... alone.
The answer came
As a mystical laugh—
Then silence.
The wind carried the words away.

And only the moon
Was witness to this:
One day,
Your heart will shatter,
And bitter tears
Will be shed...
