You emerge from the shadows
With a glimmer in your smile.
Your fingertips are soothing
But your demeanor is hostile.
I feel safe in your embrace
But I’m shaking like a child.
Build me up with your seduction,
Leave my innocence defiled.
I hear whispers tempting.
I see my journey ending.
My heartbeat’s not resting.
Kiss slow while undressing…
I hear echoes of my past,
They warn me this will never last,
“Remember me.”
They’re warning me.
They tell me what I will become
But what we’ve started can’t be undone.
