Black Temptation: Lovers Of The Night .[Forever].

by xPerfect Chaosx   Apr 6, 2008


Hall of Magnificence, Eyes of passion
Dancers all dressed gaily in their best
Ladies in ornate ball gowns
Twirl under the intricate ceiling of lies
Gold plated to reveal the truth
Through waning eyes of Passion

Your eyes burning holes through my skin
As you watch every sinuous move of my body
Tempting you in closer and closer with each twirl
With each and every glance your feet move to my beat

Your heart pounds in your throat as I take a single step away
Playing an abstract game of Hide-And-Seek with higher stakes
Pushing your will to the limit of breaking, it's a difficult task

As I twirl into the arms of another dancer,
A faceless man, just a pawn in our complex game
You turn to walk away, as you catch a glimpse of hope
Just what you had been waiting for,
A bat of the eyelashes
A seductive curve of the finger
Beckoning you forward
Into Temptation

Your strong arms curl around my waist
Pulling me closer to you than you had ever imagined
Twirling among the other dancers, all envious of our grace
Your eyes never leave my face
I have you right where I want you
A small smile, egging on your desire

As the blood begins to pump rapidly through your veins,
I lace my fingers in yours, leading you astray
If only you knew the truth about me
It's nothing to do with you, and everything to do with the game

A mansion on the beach, what an amazing view
Afforded by the patio leading to the sand
With a single kick of my feet, my shoes are gone
I am running down the beach, waves crashing at my ankles
I am fully aware of how close you are behind me

A single glance back, passion filled, leads you on
Straight into my arms, straight into deceit

Hearts before minds, as fervor ensues
Our bodies and minds become one,
Hearts racing out over the waves
Water swirling around our forms
Engulfing the Lovers of the Night

Noises of love fall on deaf ears of the sea
As you begin to realize your mistake
You can no longer see the shore
And I am no longer who you believed me to be
You, who you thought you owned me
Have in the end, given me your entire soul

Forever caught in the waves of the Sea Goddess
This swirling tomb of sapphire blue water
Asphyxiate on your own desires
Smother yourself with the lies you have told

I caress your horror stricken face with gentle fingers
My words, barely audible, fall heavily on your ears
"Heed my warning dearest one"
My face twisted and contorted by the twisting waters below
"No man has owned me. No man ever will"
My fingernails rake your skin gently, leaving scars
"And for your mistake, you will pay with eternity"
Your eyes leak emerald tears, staining your face
"We shall be lovers"
I tell you wickedly
"Just like you wanted"
My form twisting into what you once believed to be true
"Forever"

Okay, not really sure where this one came from, a dark corner maybe. Anyway, I really do hope you like it, let me know what you think. I know it's long.. but this just isn't one that could be short. Thanks again!!
