Love Is Death

The wolf. 
                      The serpent.
                        Tempt me.
                 Leave me undone.

A kiss that brings me to my knees.
Destroying me completely everytime. 
Shatter my world and put the peices back together in a new way. 

The wolf in sheeps clothing has come to take me, tricking me with sly movements. 
Mesmerizing me with a twisted dance.  

I'm enthralled by the lights but it's all an illusion. 

Trying to tame me might be the death of you..
                       I fear death. 
                  True love is death. 
                 Loneliness is worse. 

So I sit here and await for true love to find me and kill me...
