Some passions are lethal and will destroy
Lethal
Attraction perched on lust is a fatal cry
Lethal
Men with empty pockets chasing love
Lethal
Shallow hearts drenched in love,
Lethal
A weary woman with clenched toes
lethal
Kneels down her lover’s feet and bows
Lethal
Blows kisses to the clouds, birds smile at her sight
Lethal
Devoid of air, polluted by this starless night
Lethal
I slept with the vultures, yet I stand my ground
Lethal
The murderers, the thieves, tease me out aloud
Lethal
With mocking smiles, they greet me with disdain
Lethal
White lies turn my days into an autumnal graveyard
Lethal
Every soul I meet has a sad story to share
Lethal
The claws of lust strips you of sanity
Lethal
In this cavern, the sinner’s drink plentily
Lethal
No care or remorse, no abode for pain
Lethal
Tender flesh, abused, a sacrifice worthy of Lucifer’s table
Lethal
My screams echo and rebound, silent is the night
Lethal
I crave for a journey home, there is no respite
Lethal
Some passions are lethal and do destroy
