Dying In Bed
THE bed a crime scene of sorts
a passion spilled in sweat
willingly i go - to my death
He comes to me in the night
a sword sharpened by lust
and thrusts it into my soul
Mother, i'm ready to come home
but the line between pain & pleasure
is small compared to the pleasant death
The coroner will say an untimely passing
but my murderous lover knew the timing
each plunge of his knife ever deeper.
