Ethereal Beauty




Ethereal beauty,

cloaked in moonlight,

swearing damnations,

with sweet words.

Taint me with your sin—

delectable immortality.

You're a mystic;

smoke and mirrors—

a mirage of humanity,

behind those cold eyes.

Drink down the ambrosia,

from my veins—

I will bleed for you,

for your immortal kiss.

Hold me in an embrace,

of deathly hands—

lips tainted by poison.

Your scent is sweet decay,

bitter on my tongue.

Four silk-lined walls,

in the shape of the coffin,

into which I collapse,

to be buried beside you,

until dusk basks the land,

in golden darkness—

painting the streets,

crimson with blood.
