Ice shivers through frosbitten veins
Warming desire in the palm of its hand
Brittle Broken orchestras
send devestation through angels throats
Affection breeds poison
Dripping from aesthetic lips
Eagerness ready's destruction
Fallen by the euphoria that betook you
Happiness is fleeting
Packed into caramel eyes
Burning hotter than the milky way
Caressing the abyss
A vituoso filled a yellowed sheet
With sharps and flats
Intertwined together
Existing in an uneasy harmony
A game of dice in the sewers
Poker in an alleyway
Love can bring Eden
or demons
Gamble Away.

This is quite fantastic. I can't remember what all the song says...but this is wonderful. Even if it had nothing to do with the song. It's still wonderful because what you were trying to do was not writing what the song said to you but what it didn't say. Excellent and most wonderful. Thank you for entering. Bravo.
