Pasty lovers lie on satin sheets
A reminder of a past with stained knots
Binding the bound together
Slipping a word past the noose
Which tightened with every passing moon
The silky binds of their passionate love
Was still never enough
Just as the apple, he was temptation to many
Just as the snake, she was bound too tight
Just as the covenant, their heart was broken in half
The beads of life from her soft hand
Fall on his rosy palm, leaving her lasting impression of love
As she looks over to his ashen face
He stares blankly away
Blinking away his guilt, waiting out his sadness
For the failed love
With eternal bonds united
They wait ever more
Waiting for the end...
Waiting for the end of eternity
Please tell me what you think
