Devilish Creature

Your love was not a flower
That settled on my heart
Your love had the power
To rip my soul apart

You tore into my life
Baring teeth and slashing claws
Your words cut like a knife
Deep into my hallowed halls

Searing into my brain
You screamed you love me
Those words drove me insane
And cut my chains and set me free

Your crushing grip upon my heart
Your mesmeric glaring stare
Now is the time to start
Our bloody violent love affair

Into eternity our blood will flow
Shattering screams amidst the stars
While cuts and bites and bruises show
My love for you will leave its scar

These blinding thoughts of you
Crippling my strong resolve
My fury cutting through
This bloodied haze called love

Love me now and evermore
Beautiful and devilish creature
You have cut me to the core
Beautiful and devilish creature
