Serpent
Your eyes glow like coals
And here comes the winter rain
Flooding our hearts and
Freezing our pain
Misty skies full of stars
That shine like you do
And dancing on flames, we sing
And you smile
As you turn away
From me
Like a serpent you slither
Like a serpent
Like a serpent
You bite into my heart
Snakelike eyes, how they
Glitter
As you hold me and say
That we’ll fall away
Tucked into your coils I have no escape
Although I don’t struggle-
I don’t want out anyway
Silver dagger, do your worst
Hidden death, in my fist
And you smile
As you turn away from me
Like a serpent you slither
Like a serpent you bite
Into my soul
Snakelike how your eyes
Glitter
As you hold me and say
That we’ll fall away
My eyes glow like coals
And here comes the winter rain
Flooding along with your blood
And freezing your pain
Misty skies full of bloody stars
And dancing on flames, I sing
And you smile
As you turn away
From me
For the last time
