Hold my hand, dear beloved.
Although a morsel of imagination,
One day our paths will cross.

Illicit love, devil's dove

Stars will align to signal the
Apocalypse, unfurling
When our flowers bear fruit

Some say you’re a fairytale,
But I sense your presence,
Like the meerkat tasting the
Rain hours before it falls.
Take cover, for the storm will
Rage and thunder clap
As our fingers interlock.

Illicit love, devil's dove

One-way ticket to brimstone lake.
Is this the price of happiness?
Sacrifice bliss for man’s nod?
Shall I rot alone for purity’s sake?
No.
Together, we’ll rewrite man’s laws
And the pearly gates will swing open,
For paradise lies in you and I,
An eternity tucked in your embrace.

Illicit love, devil's dove

Meanwhile, I’m well aware,
That in my den forever forbear,
My eyes will never meet
My dear beloved of my sleep.
