Alchemy
You keep me in a bottle
I watch you as you pass
Waiting to he used again
I lean upon the glass
Addicted to your alchemy
I turn from green to gold
You warm me to sublimination
You freeze me still and cold
I want to breathe your ether
Your toxins i don't need
Cannot move my eyes from you
A book I should not read
I swim within your mercury
Sweet poison in my veins
And you will leave, evaporate
My love in leaden chains
This Limerance just chemistry
You'll never know my heart
So I'll stay in Sulphur mists
And we will remain apart
