Diabolical and beautiful
You stalk me from the overgrowth
Slithering straight into my life
Poison fangs concealed

Can you hear my every breath
Can you feel my beating heart
Or are you too concerned with
Bringing them to a halt

You coil around my throat
Choking my finals breaths
Teeth sink into my skin
Venom taking me down,
down,
down,
drop.

Warm bodies and warmer souls
Hands connect our hearts of gold
Embers flake from off our skin
I raise my arm and let you spin

The ember sets and sparks ignite
Lighting up our passioned night
Head to chest, mind to soul
We’ll dance until we’re set in coal

Fires blazing in our eyes
Thought lowest lows and highest highs
Step by step and day by day
Together we’ll keep the blaze at bay

The heat between us grows and grows
In your arms I stopped and froze
With every kiss, another looms
Together we dance in burning rooms
