Daughter of Desire
Ravish me Lilith into the stillness of desire. I am your chained daughter of the evening, the galaxies are adamantine, and oh my beloved from a heavenly belvedere the darkness at your feet is sublime.
Desire witness your victory I am made of past agonies
How I love to be loved, thorns smother my mouth looking for a way out
The dizziness! of being! I’m a wild thing in becoming
Only agony brought me to your door before the morning
Oh the moths were drowning in moonlight for desire
Winged pietàs driving nails inside my fingertips
I witnessed the infinite and I’m it let me live at your lips
The burning liquor of a god corroding my tongue and I fear I am with that deity desire again
Earth I weep, I weep to witness your griefs lavishing me
Oh I closed my eyes like the lidded eyes of the deities
and dreamt I got what I want when that god of desire kneeled before me
I walk in the gallows of golden noons looking for you
This is the mirror of fire, this is how I die
It wasn't life it was survival and I fear I am paralyzed by desire
I witnessed the infinite, desire made me a daughter of need, and yes I screamed
Step on my neck desire, I had a dream you were chained to me in the evenings
Bury me bright sunrise I am your daughter of ravishing Desire
My beloved, you massacre me—the dark earth dreams of release into ecstasy
The viper whispers to me in the vestal eves, ravish me Lilith, rush me with desire
Drown in my throat Eros, I had a dream you were chained to me in the evenings
Desire burned as devastation in me
Yes the holiness of my desires gripped me, I kneeled for mercy
I am your daughter decadence, the vice! the vice I survived! I am your daughter desire
Ces terres sont sauvages, où sont les anges?
My butcher, bury me bright sunrise
You are the rapture I chase after
I beheld the brutality
and the brutality I fear it witnessed me
I went marching in the midnights
Like I was your daughter Desire
[I met the deluge] [beloved I want to wound you]
