Cloaked in your bitter disguise,
concealed me from all your lies.
Blissful moments embracing tender,
to your love I did wholly surrender.
High waves of sultry passion swelled,
till your curse sent it straight to hell.
Lie after lie, your poison spread,
with every word you ever said.
Sulphur pulsates inside brittle veins,
lava burns, heart screams pain.
Scalding memories deep within,
ice froze your every sin.
Darkness slowly weaved its way,
ebonized stains are here to stay.
No more does the light shine,
never again will you be mine.
