The Fall

A kiss of fire blessed my lips
And all the world is gone amiss

The swaying slow of our sweet dance
Body embracing body enthralled in a trance

And you open your eyes and you look into mine
And I feel a snaking cold in the low of my spine

You laugh and you whisper gently in my ear
You must kill me to hold me forever by you dear

Blood flows free from the wound of your blade
As I fall to the floor like the fool I was played

You wipe the knife clean with your once loving tongue
As I say the last words with the breath in my lung

I love you.

I loved you.

Goodbye.
