Another White Oleander
he says that my kiss is intoxicating
drawing him closer and closer
getting lost in my ocean eyes
and fathomed with excitement
I'm lost in a labrynth
trying to comprehend the situation
feeling remorse for the affair
and engulfed in what will follow.
another white oleander
i'm poison in a pretty package
never hurt because I cause the pain
just a mysterious present that only suggests death.
He says he'll try to be good
he loves the life he has back home
but it's been a long time
and he loves what we have
I'm tearing at my sanity
keeping a tale that shouldn't exist
manipulating a simple position
and complicating two innocent lives.
Another white oleander
I'm poison in a pretty package
Never hurt because I cause the pain
just a mysterious present that only suggests death.
