My Little Wish

my little wish
your claws have
dipped
not once,
but twice
into my flesh
and bled my heart
for you.
loving you
and your
not knowing;
your innocence
and want
keeps me
waiting,
little
mountain lion.
your kisses
with your little
tongue
are just like
biting
on my soul.
my heart,
your string.
your teeth,
my sword
I fall on.
