Description
fairy dust spews like fire from your lips,
scorching the saran wrap skin of my hips
shooing away my fingertips
saving your porcelain figure from chips

i focus on you like a laser light
i'm afraid of the dark, the dragons of the night
afraid of the fangs that pose as starlight
you are my gray dawn, my shaky twilight

you rise up above me like a drift of snow
i cower in your shadow, you shimmer and glow;
i ask, i beg, you still say no--
"kiss me!" i cry, "can you bend this low?"

your chilly lips send a spark down my spine;
i am honored, my dear, with those kisses so fine,
so grateful to give up my blood for your wine,
it's a blessing, pretending your love is divine.

i strip off the chains that you give me to wear
bury my face in your wild red hair;
as you prove to me how you really do care
i grasp with blind fingers at what was never there.

one raw, exquisite tear falls like a hailstone
mocking the powder that once was my bone
"oh save me, sweet servant, i feel so alone!"
my darling, my master,
you've killed what you owned.
