I don't think he wanted me at first. I was a coke-whore queen who still had a metal mouth and a tepid smile. I was never really all there, but my body wanted his warmth. His kisses were odd then. They were solid and made me hold my breath. His body was fire flesh, even on the coldest of nights I could swear I could smell him smoldering. I was simply something for him to have then, a girl who could never refuse being looked at and wanted. I fed on lust.
When he left me I was cold again and would cry.
The next day, he was forgotten though, it was easy enough when your staring down a twenty-dollar cylinder that turns even the sourest of worlds into a fairy-tale.
He would come back sometimes. I would let him have me.
He didn't know that I wanted everything from him. I wanted him all in my selfish wonderland. I was a carnivore for his flesh, hungry for his girth. I would play pretend in my head, where he would lead me to his secret land where everything was warm and no one had to leave the comfort of their own flesh for sanctity. A world where people made music, music that would strangle the wild with in me. These people only came out at night, which gave them the pallor of skins.
When we touched I could feel the movement of his blood within his temple, the rhythm that calmed me. He was different, I knew he had come from another world.
I was impatient when he kept leaving, he wasn't interested in having me. I was too wild eyed then, too much of a fiend.
It was o.k though since I was still staring down a cylinder.
I didn't see him for a while and I forgot about the unnatural heat and translucent skin that held me in a grip of awe. It was the night of his birthday when he came back to me.
I would let him have me one last time.
But I had changed, I was too cold then not even his heat could warm me. I no longer had cylinders to drown my self in either. And when he left there were no more tears I was an empty half loved girl who had killed the wild inside of her, not realizing it was my only fill.
He didn't come back, and even if he had wanted to I wouldn't let him. It was to late for him to show me the world he came from. The world I could only play pretend to belong to.
