Death in love

. 

From afar you were a treasure

The diamond in the rough

(There was no one better)

You instantly had me captivated

With your sweet charm

I was elated 

The moment those hands

Caressed my body

There was a melody 

That never stopped playing

 

I gave in 

So quick to your lust

Thought I was falling in love 

Your proposal to make me 

Your wife

Disappeared 

Along with my life

(As I knew it)

 

You drew me in

In order to fulfill

The fanatic sins 

You had up your sleeve

Like a magician

You placed me in a box

Drawing the blood 

(You came for)

 

My heart shattered 

Into a million pieces 

Feeling uneven 

By your demons 

 

Why'd you choose me

As your victim? 

Thought you'd get away

Without question

The poison from 

Your potion

Leaving me

Breathless 

 

You smiled as you 

Continued to unleash 

The beast

Within your soul

My heart taking what it could

Before reaching overload

 

This monster 

Consumed my flesh

(Doing the unimaginable)

 

My skin pressed

To stretch 

The canvass 

Of death

 

Blood spatter 

Used to paint

The details

Of a love once

Lived.
