possession

and could you hold me
a little while longer?
in an embrace
or a chokehold
either one will do.
i’ve learned to find love
in suffocation
and strangulation
what’s a love bite
if not a bruise?

and could you tell me
all that you desire?
and i will
become her
if you’d like.
i could 
bend to your will
like a contortionist.
like your dream girl.
like a trophy.
like your possession. 

and could i hold you
just one last time?
kiss your lips
to remember how it feels
to surrender
to sacrifice
to relinquish control
allow my body
to drift at sea.
get lost in the tides.
drown.

and could i tell you
all that i desire?
that you would
summon me
say my name
to your reflection.
and there i’d stand
looking in your eyes once more.
a ghost.
a haunting. 
a possession.
