Acoustic Kiss

I’ll give you mouth to mouth,
whether you ask for it or not; 
I have a golden voice 
and a very potent toxin;

Oh little amused muse,
I didn’t want you to get so close;
Stop letting your eyes flash; 
Sit down, control yourself; 

Urging me to go harder, 
You came to my darkest lights ;
urging me to come faster,
waving that bright red flag ;

I’ll give you mouth to mouth, 
I can see that’s what you want;
You want a bite, my whisper,
you’re desperate for my venom;

Oh little amused muse, 
I can’t end your daydreams;
I can’t swallow away your terrors;
I am a purveyor of dark fantasies;

I’ll give you my soul,
just promise not to choke; 
Dangerous, my acoustic kiss;
That’s why I say ‘Just the tip.’
