O that the raven haired beauty

Would lend a piece of her heart

That mane, that silk
That ebony milk

With a look could tear me apart

Poison- lacing beautiful
So toxic and so stunning

O jaws that snare
O claws that tear

O candy coated cunning

Her laugh rings out like a banshee’s
It jerks at my heart’s love tethers

A venom-laden
Midnight maiden

Toys with my love on a feather

I must say, there is something inside of me that is entirely ruthless. Something about revealing absolutely nothing is attractive to me. I can't say exactly where this comes from, but i guess i like a bit of challenge. Oh, i am clever.
