The pale light of the full moon illuminates
My shadow and I hold hands in the illusion

There in front of the whitewashed tombs, I see him
My Dark One
My Angel

The light reflects off his pale white skin
And I see the emerald centers underneath his painted eyes

He is an androgynous boy-man
His passion warms his cold skin and mine
We fall on the cold sepulchre, my gothic lover and I
Locked in our death embrace

He is light and dark
Pure and soiled
Saint and sinner
Heaven and hell

His scent mingles with the rising jasmine
I breathe him in

His iron embrace drains all life
His devouring kiss is my demise

No reprieve
