Bloodied Lips

There’s blood on your full lips

Painful drops cry out the victims of your deadly kiss

Something within screams that I’m next in line

But your velvet skin and mine I want to entwine

You stare at me with eyes as black and cold as a gun

And I knew the end of my heart had begun

Lust and danger cloud your piercing eyes

Slowly the real you emerge from the guise

With hands as poisonous as cyanide you caress my face

Slowly I feel myself fading from time and space

My eager mouth is greeted by your bloodied lips

My heart is engulfed by this eclipse

You lay me to rest in the field of your victims

I’m half alive, my future is grim

On your full lips a new drop of blood appears

And from my body, the love I had quietly disappears.
