I drip with a relentless poison
that seeps into his skin
the closer he moves toward me
the closer I move within
plucking at his heartstrings
pulling each and every thread
and still he keeps on loving
'til his very dying breath
I apologise, my darling
for what I do without cause
past the wishing and the wanting
there must soon come a pause
so that I can try to heal you
from the venom that I spread
with passion and with fury
'til your dying breath.
