The Stallion

The clang of metals woke us up coiling together
The god of Iron is coming to pay a wild visit
Thoughts of it alone made me shudder
As our embrace only got tighter
By the hand you led,taking it away in sleeves
Fleshy bodice entwined together singing the song of yore
Under your umbrella indeed was the solace I had
It kept me away from me as fear fizzles into the oblivion
Stallion,heart robber.
You killed and I died under the heat of your passion
Like the lion and the hare
Breath like seizures of convulsion erupted like wild volcano
The ash splashing here and there
Gently,I stood from the vomit
I smiled a wry smile of victory
I've done it again.
