Devils bride

tallisman

She left him, just walked away.

Never stopped or looked around

He couldn’t find the words to make her stay

He couldn’t make a sound

 

He watched her car drive away

Drive off down the street

Finally he turned away

His misery complete

 

Her love eats like venom into your heart

Her arms both enfold you and tear you apart

Her kisses taste sweet but take away your breath

She makes you feel alive but she leads you to death

She’s poison dressed up in black lingerie

She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey

 

Her poison was deep in his heart

Her words fractured his head

His life was now torn apart

A future born in dread

 

In his mind he replayed the scene

Unable to process what he’d lost

Refusing to accept what it would mean

Not able to count the cost

 

Her love burns like acid into your mind

Her arms hold you close but permanently bind

Her kisses taste sweet until the end nears

They taste of foul waters when your mind finally clears

She’s a lady of style from shoes to beret

She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey

 

They found him next day out in the shed

Swinging slowly from a rafter

He lived for her love but lost it instead

And can’t face the world thereafter

 

She’s older than time but as young as required

She is as cold as ice but as hot as desired

Her grace and her beauty is without parallel

She dines on despair and she likes to dine well

She’s a dream and a queen who makes her own way

She’s a bride of the devil and you are her prey
