You pulled me close, gazing into my eyes and 

      adorning me with diamonds; 

Your glances were always longing and melancholy. 

Your gift symbolizes our love.. A heart shaped 

      medallion wrapped around my neck; 

Suffocating me with roses and reeking of your   

      fragrant lilies.

You were venomous, yet my love never faltered. 

I continue to dream of you in the depths of night- 

      of your soft skin, and your kisses like honey. 

Sickeningly sweet.

Nonetheless when your poison filled my lungs, I 

      could not imagine running.

Even as I began coughing up deep crimson dahlias, 

      reducing me to useless mumbling..

I repeated soothing prayers of love, in hopes you 

      may hear them.

 O’ dear enchanting auburn angel, leaving this chain 

      and body of mine rumbling.

Why do you leave my heart tumbling?

Set aflame with fires of love, my fingers reaching 

      toward your scorched remains.

Now that you've gone, I've been left grasping. 

Chasing those butterflies and endlessly asking..

Why must you hurt me with your painful axing..?
