Let the Dead Part Ways

 

I taste you wet on my skin

I taste you shadowy river lapping at my mind

You pass through me

Over me

Under me

I taste you wet on my skin

 

You pass through me as you pass through Turkey

Become Firat

You pass through me as you pass through Iraq

Become al-Furat

You pass through me as you pass through Syria

Become Prath

I taste you wet on my skin

 

You are many tongued

Lapping at my mind

Perth

Yep’rat

Euphrates

I taste you wet on my skin

 

Kiss me sister of Tigris

Kiss me shining blackness and palm fronds

I taste you wet on my skin

I taste you shadowy river lapping at my mind

You pass through me

Over me

Under me

I taste you wet on my skin

 

I am wet with you

I am wet with your kisses

I am soaked through

Leannan the Living

Leannan of Earth

Of dust

Of dirt

Of fur and cum

I am soaked through

 

I am wet with you

I am wet with your kisses

I am soaked through

Leannan the Dead

Leannan of Water

Of tears

Of blood

Of moans and sighs

I am soaked through

 

We part here

Leannan and Leannan

Living and Dead

Earth and Water

Dust and tears

Dirt and blood

We part ways here

For we are soaked through

And she paddles away

 

I taste you wet on my skin

I taste you shadowy river lapping at my mind

You pass through me

Over me

Under me

You pass through me

and I taste you wet on my skin
