Satin

love is such sweet sorrow

Purple
The color of the flame
Around my heart
Burning with longing
Coupled with despair
Because you tempt me so
Baffling me at times
Eradicating me
A mere empty shell
Degenerate of self
An unredeemed marauder
Of shadows
And nightmare ether
A blackened forest
Infested with a chorus of souls
How my love burns
Wrapped in a crown of thorns
