Fear the Beauty Within a Serpent

Enslave myself in the climax of my fears.
Rejection chains me up depriving me from loving you.
Ignore, I always do to your unique stare.
Forcefully I fight so you wont invade my heart.

Great challenge I face to perish my feelings and emotions.
Massive weight I continuously carry.
Deeply desire to be liberated from this feeling that torches me.
Keeps me wounded without healing.

Desire to don't fall for you.
Combustion out of the evil, so there is not a risk for me falling for a fool.
Serpent with venom and fangs but with beauty in his heart.
Fear to love you as you have the power to break me apart if i surrender.

This is so well conceived. The wrestling with English vocab and syntax bring unexpected phrasings that help rather than hinder your poems for me. Thank you for them.
