Prey: Confession of a Hunter (Nocturna)

 

His breath is falling on me abruptly;

His movements are gentle like breeze of spring;

His fingers touching tender parts sharply.

I crave him, from the evening, for the night.

There will be no such thing, what you call string—

Between us. His soft moan giving me flight;

His touch, his pushing making me feel light.

Urge needs attentions which he fulfilling.

Am a hunter, he is my loot tonight.
