It has been too long
since she’s seen me.
I have stolen glimpses of her,
under night’s black cover,
when she was too involved
in feeding her beast,
but tonight I am caught
with prey blood dripping
down my own chin.
Her wolf eyes blaze
as I wipe the crimson juice
from my lips.
Does she judge?
Does she yearn?
Does she wish
for a return to our yesterdays
when our love was stronger
than our hungers?
I blink,
and she is gone.
No sound wounds me deeper
than the silence
her absence creates.
My fangs retract.
The body in my arms
grows cold,
and I know what must be done.
