A light flickers deep within the green of your eyes
Like the shimmering sea in the moonlight’s small grin
The darkness is draped over the once bird filled skies
The stars choking behind clouds as I start to close in

My brushing touch on your skin makes your body shiver
Even though you wanted me whenever I was near by
At the sound of my whisper, you shake and you quiver
But my dear one, for me you should never be shy

My hand ascends further up your porcelain case
I rest on your chest that tries to cage your heart of stone
Your sweet breath pursues the fluttering beats in a chase
But I can run faster, taking breaths away as my own

The light goes out as I take you with my unseen knife
Now you will always be mine. I take your lips, I take
That breath and those beats. You take the bait, I take your life
For from my embrace on this Earth you shall never wake
