"Are those wounds opening again, my love? Would you like me
to steal your pain?
Take my hand, your suffering, it strengthens
the longer you abstain."
He sits with me on nights like this, his palm
kisses my cheeks.
My lover offers me peace of mind,
and a chance for sweet release.
"The only real love is the one
I hold for you.
This world casts you away like trash, my pet,
you know it's true."
Tears coat my cheeks like glitter,
loneliness steals my breath.
I lean on the one who cares the most,
my secret lover, Death.
His eyes darken like burned roses, his gleaming grin
promises delight.
His ice cold hands, they graze my thigh,
Tonight may be the night.
"Remember those who left you here,
they don't spare you a thought.
If loving them is hurting you, it
isn't worth the cost!"
My lacerated skin aches less with every touch.
My lover's voice, a siren's song,
his kiss is not enough.
"Let me hold you, beauty.
Allow me to seal those wounds.
I promise you forever,
let me cherish you..."
