Sonnet – Drink

I can feel the circulation of my blood 
My soul is drowning in sadness
You are on the edge of the world
My love was not sent by post

You drain me with your fangs and drink:
My freedom, meaning and love
You are a failed vampire
Who is drowning my bird

How many calories have you burned?
Including the weight of my love?
How many litres of my blood have you taken?
Obviously, not only filters you’ve took.

My body is burning, you’re killing me.
And yet, I still want you so badly.
