the metaphor of the succubus made me smile. then when you brought it back to the universal theme that we all desire love i was already nodding quite heavily. wonderful piece
While I cannot disagree more with your take on love, however depressing, this is a very good poem. It has a very subtle tone to it, which I think, captures perfectly the morbidity of love that you're trying to convey, and you manage to create some very powerful images with your choice and positioning of words.
