Adoration

Oh, what I would not give

For your revenge to fall upon me

For your sweet poison to embed

Your name into my skin

What crime would I commit, what sin

To see the anger in your eyes

To see you craving my demise

To feel your wrath as it arises.

Oh, what I would give up

For your cold blade to bleed me

For your dark soul to sheathe me,

To feel you flow within me.

What cruelty lies in your hands

And what is that strange, restless, nerve

That binds you to the stoic wish,

Denying me what I deserve?

I have trespassed on your domain,

I have destroyed your great composure

And still your eyes hold but disdain,

And still I beg misfortune.

Why then do you allow my breath

To reach your skin, to taint you?

Why now do you contain your strength

And crush me not beneath you?

For oh, what sin would I commit for you

My silver haired, unwavering demise!

Whatever you will have me do,

Craving under my eyelids lies.
