Attracted by your warmth
Slithering through crowds of people like blades of grass
My words are venomous, my teeth are fangs
My love will coil around you heart and leave you feeling blue
Hungrily, I set my trap
Weaving my lies like silk
Patiently, I wait for you
The unsuspecting moth in my web
Swaddled in the warmth of my love
The tenderness of my kiss will leave you paralyzed
As I slowly devour you
Pleading for your help
Because life is pooling around me
And the heaviness of my claws will weigh me down, making me drown
Knowing what I was, you still carried me
With my stinger in your back
and your eyes filled with regret
I'll whisper to you softly, sweetly,
"It's in my nature"
I'm a predator
Cold, calculating, and craving control
So excuse me when I consume you
Leaving behind nothing but a carcass
Even as it corrodes me in the process
Because self destruction,
"It's in my nature."
