Dark Love

[Jerrybaldy]

Our shared tattoos,
sank our love beneath the skin.
We scabbed and scratched together,
rainbow hemorrhages,
spewing over white linen sheets.
We pierced each other,
with matching holes,
and chained our holes together.
We cut each other,
and kissed,
with the lips of our wounds.
We swam in sheets
of blood and love.
Penetrating the wounds,
with wet fingers.
Sinking in pain.
Drowning in despair,
to be combined.

Jerry, this is dark indeed, and wonderful at the same time — the sharing of pleasure and pain I wonder what the tattoo is....

Dark, indeed - but engrossing.

very nicely written. sends shivers down my spine as a mother of a self-harmer but it reminds me also of the passion of youth

Jerry, I just got a chill... Very dark... I have written something similar. I will upload it shortly. Good one though... Ouch.

[Jerrybaldy]

Haunted- I wonder.....
Prince- Thank you - engrossing is good.
Delta - I am happy that is over for you
Mary d - Excuse the chills ;)

Definitely the musings of a tortured artist - dark and disturbing, but written with a certain elegance.

Thank you H.
Thought it was time to rest the prose for a bit.

What a torturous combination indeed! What a fight, and what a loss.

[Jerrybaldy]

Thank you Kafka. There is no fight going on here in the conventional sense.
