There hides a secret deeply
twined inside of her mind,
a tried and confined egret
that pines to fly south to
this mouth of mine.
Pity!
Too long have these emotions
like potions made me a sole castellan,
trusted to keep the weight of oceans
from her rusted gates of sleep.
A dreaming angel lying curled
in the circles of Hell.
I must protect her, watch her
back for any cracks to occur.
For in the witching hour
she slips into the underworld,
a pearled Persephone deflowered
by the powers that around her
down her whirl.
Doomed to damn the rift
across the shifting abyss
with her body and it's gift,
my filthy little secret!
I serve her slender hope
to preserve mankind from old ghosts.
Disturbed though by recurring crimes
I sense that dead might be best for both.
Pity!
Too long have these emotions
like potions made me a sole castellan,
posted to keep slow wheels in motion
from the human race to beat.
Without her there,
my Nymphetamine with
the faraway stare.
Thin walls would crumble,
horrors would corroborate
from dogstar lairs.
For in the dead of the night
she spasms with orgasmic flare.
This reamed Demeter with Poseidons
there inside her too appeased
to grieve our air.
Doomed to damn the rift
across the shifting abyss
with her body and it's gift,
My filthy little secret!
Forever sworn to keep it,
my filthy little secret
She makes me burn!
Pity!
Too long this urchin princess
has incensed, made me a wanton felon
searching for the key to loose her harness
and set desires lurching free.
Without her there,
my Nymphetamine with
the faraway stare.
Thin walls would crumble,
horrors would corroborate
from dogstar lairs.
But in her room at night
I care not for the underworld.
Slathering and gathering emboldened reichs
to breach, to teach a dread thereafter.
I would risk all this
for one minute of bliss
with her body and it's gift,
my filthy little secret.
Forever sworn to keep it,
my filthy little secret!
I know a deeper beauty
shines beyond the veil,
her roots and creepers mine
as the worms beneath arise!
twined inside of her mind,
a tried and confined egret
that pines to fly south to
this mouth of mine.
Pity!
Too long have these emotions
like potions made me a sole castellan,
trusted to keep the weight of oceans
from her rusted gates of sleep.
