______________________ trust ___________________________



___________________ Your beauty was _____________________
_____________________ boundless ________________________

____________________ captivating _______________________
_______________ invitingly mesmerizing _________________
___________________ turning reason _____________________
_____________________ into demon _______________________
________________________ dust __________________________



________________ Blinded by the darkness ________________

_______________________ Heart __________________________

_____________ My loins languished in misery ____________

________________ I had to have you _____________________
____________ Penetrate you and consume you _____________

___________________ To own you _________________________

____________ As I was owned by my desire _______________
__________ To fill you with my seed of love ____________
_______ It mattered not you belonged to another ________

_______________ That now engulfs _______________________

______________________ Me _______________________________

________________ On hell's funeral _____________________
_____________________ pyre _____________________________
