Love, The Creature

A creature waits to be fed
Softly beside your bed
And when time grows near
You face your deep fear
And plunge headlong instead



Love IS a creature, waiting for you to sacrifice yourself to it, become One with it... To see the beauty inside it's gullet, and the wonders that those who give all to the Alter of the Beast realize.  It is worth the sacrifice of self to become one with a beast so powerfully in control of your heart.  It makes life more interesting, it makes giving more rewarding, and it makes pain deeper and more cutting.  But the pain is worth the tenderness that often accompanies it.

Your heart wants to give in.

Let it.

Lie naked in the jaws of the beast and let it take you wholly, completely, and passionately.

Love, itself, becomes the reward, your heart and soul the investments.  And worth Every. Single. Tear.

<3 <3

Indeed.
