Sinning Saints

With a tongue like a viper--
slinging love instead of venom
and eyes like a saint
sinning in the wide, wide open.
Marry me
Meld to me
Boring burning holes in my
cold, black, bitter armor
revealing the sick, naked child
That I forget that I am.
Sway with me
Stay with me
We feel the stars collide
with nowhere left to hide
we fall down alive again
laughing, playing again
Lie with me
Love with me
Bleeding starlight instead of pitch
wounds that never healed close around her
Arms around me, drowning
in a sea of fire, burning my pain away
Take my love

Take me, Love
