Description
running downward, thick rivuletsburning fire onto flesh and searing my soul
with its wicked temptations.
you taunt me in my very essence
you seek to find the reins and take hold
you seek to muddle clarity into desire.
the disconnected passion
of wanting without wanting
of needing and being bound to the taste
of licking wounds and savoring injury.
of being the blind musician
running his bow across your neck.
i shudder at the thought of it
and crave the mere mention.
i attempt to divorce myself from it,
but its words speak as a siren's song
burning at my ears and demanding
absolute allegiance.
shall i come undone as i do
each time the temptation throttles headlong
into the deepest recesses of my soul?
the sight of one color
the odor of one viscous liquid
and i lose myself to unadulterated lust again.

The battle cry of the reluctant vampire perhaps? Or just a friendly warning to a curious acquaintance with the elixer of life running under their skin? Very well written, whichever and whatever the case.
