Kill Me

Kill me


Evil creeps here and there
All around, and in the dank misty air

I can taste the blood on my lips
I shiver, at the thrill of my death

Nothing matters
As I sense the essence of this nefarious attack

I lack the vision to see the terror
Of the not knowing, not quite sure

When the arrow long and straight
Shall come to pierce my heart impure

As it most surely will
In the autumn rain

I remember, I consume, I devour
That day full of umbrellas

I saw you dressed in black and red
My heart, suddenly filled with delightful dread

For I knew, I knew who you were
The stranger with the pretty umbrella

We smiled, even if you knew yet not why
You would become the one to kill me so

With kindness
With flowers
With candles
With soft music
With your sweet caress
With the sway of your hips
With your smile
With your love of humanity
With your laughter towards children
With the dance in your step
With your lips that bound my love to the angels

You killed me with your pure desires and charm
You killed me with such delectable wiles
For surely to be beside one
As beautiful as you
I must have died
And drifted up to the heavens above
