Fatal Attraction

Appalled, dazed, secretive
we run to your hidden room
above the roses in the arbor.

Really a cheap motel, 
but I like to pretend.

Forbidden fuels passion, 
and hunger is satisfied.

Hold him to his actions,
let him know what he gave 
means permanence...

I demand he keeps the promise
of true love
or die.
