A/N: Inspired by Gerry!Red Death...isn't that kohl around his eyes smexy?


They dance, oh, see!

The lovely couple—

BAH!

You, swept up inside his hold

Blushing with a paleness in your cheeks

And now—silence reigns supreme!

As I march grandly down my little stage!

The steps make clicks beneath my boots

And how they all gape up—at me!

Frightened into wordlessness—

HA! HA!—

Of me!—

I sneer, but ah! My stomach burns, Christine!...

I feel like weeping though I laugh and wield my rapier

In fat Piangi's face, and how Carlotta stares, as if

I were a demon…

Which

I am.

Your lover leaves you for his sword…

How I'd love to see him bleed—

As I—

Have bled—

From every metaphoric pore

And all—

From thought

Of you—

A sob begins within my chest

As you stand staring,

And it threatens to break horribly free

Although it never leaves my throat…

Oh, you wicked, beautiful traitor

Porcelain-angel-girl

OH, CHRISTINE...
