Flirt with my demons

The songs I urge for, 
hold the heaviness you breathe in to me, 
How you paint poetic parallel pieces, 
in a porcelain poison photography, 

Place the gate of my fingers, 
on your chaotic contradictions, 
Let them explore vigorously 
Beneath and beyond the boundaries of what could be, 

In a room full of our piercingly powerful dreams, 
Let us be the object to these unfinished tasks 
taken to treat our new found ecstasy, 

So choose us, between hell and earth.
and with fire, flirt with my demons 
that profusely starve for you, 
Bursting into our very own heaven , 
written from the tales of our souls, 

Carve me, for I too have held wounds, 
Hurt me , because you hurt too,
Shall we sing our pain 
in an unstoppable sonata?

I see the beauty in the orchestra,
It’s untamable, yet leashed, 
Irresistible, although weak, 

You are a dangerous dare, 
I could never share, 
The addiction , your words 
have brought on to me.

A Sonata sung in the key of pain? Ah, Lioness, a love that wounds so deeply must also be one that soars to the heights of heaven... and one worth facing demons to feel.
