Repeat it To Me

Voices, like liquid,
catch in my throat,
hook in my mouth,
and drag me along
Sensors, all over my body,
behave erratically
and it angers me
Eyes, like vicious beacons
latch onto my lusts
and bring them to light
like a sign,
hung as a noose
'round my neck
Completely Whole,
still wishing there was more
more eyes to love me,
more curved lips to shine on me,
more titles given to my name,
to the begining and ending of my days

Repeat it to me

Repeat my name,
chant it like a curse
'til at last I cannot breathe
because of it,
repeat it to me

repeat the call of my heart,
cry it out maddeningly
and make me see,
force my body to turn
and to accept all of you

Hands, like gravedigger's tools,
unearth me from my fears,
caress me like a lover,
and leave me cold and alone
Noises, like a viper's hiss,
lash out at me as
I imagine my prince
taking me up, giving me his name,
his love
Thrones, like my untimely fate,
sit still, as figure head,
etched throughout history,
stagnant, immaculate,
ever ready to hold me still,
like a prisoner upon it
Completely Broken,
full of holes, I am leaking
wishing frantically that there was truth,
truth to my desires,
truth to my words,
truth to fill the holes in me
to the begining and ending of my days

Repeat it to me

Repeat that it does exist,
a true forever, in happiness
with a true love and a true wish,
not dismissed but paid in full
Repeat it to me,
repeat it to me,
repeat...
