“Maybe ever’body in the whole damn world is scared of each other.”

― John Steinbeck, Of Mice and Men


Lights flickered 
Blue 
Red 
Yellow 
We were in 
Sync 

Music 
Blared 
A hideous 
Melody capturing 
Us 

It was violent 
Sexual 
Beautiful 

We became one. 
Dancing on each 
Other 
Laughing 
Sweating 
Moaning 

But it was all 
A game. 
A bet. 

Because alas, 
I was easy Money. 
I was his ticket to 
Fame. 
Popularity. 
Girls. 

He reached for my 
Hips. 
I froze. 
He said I was 
Different. 
I danced. 

But I was naive. 
Stupid. 

His lips glided onto 
Mine like 
Venom. 

The night 
Bled. 
I was 
His. 

Or at least he 
Thought. 
For as soon as 
The midnight came, 
I lunged for 
Him 

Teeth grazing 
His delicate 
Skin 
He was mine 
Blood nurtured my 
Curse 

To taste the soul 
Of the unfaithful 
I was reborn

(also, off topic but I love John Steinbeck's books and your quote is so cool)
