Kiss Or Kill

Kiss or kill at fallen will

Her dark embrace of sorrow spills

Heed the heart at bent knee

Screams farewell from deep beneath

Hate and hide through outside eyes

Craves the ache of our demise

A slower death - subsiding sting

Hush the tones of searing peace

Let it seep in this divine suffocation

She took my breath away

You held perfection

Wrapped in persuasion

My fallen angel of darkened bliss

The luminous stare of innocence

Reopen the wounds of forbidden loss

Your cathartic mystery cut me twice as hard

Those poisoned lips of tenderness ployed

Pierced through to kill me twice as hard

The warmth of desire

So transcendent and dangerous

When the risk of romance is hopeless

So fucking hopeless

Your presence lingers

And keeps a sadness in this smile

Each captured moment now lies face down

Sweetness I keep my fingers crossed

As I lay and wait

Lovingly by your side

For one last caress
