Black Satin Sheets

She walked in draped in midnight coal

Eyes green like serpents on patrol

Her tongue split whispered words of ice

Stole his soul and never paid the price

Promises dangling like poisoned wine

Her touch was fire in the moon's decline

He bit the apple only felt the sting

At the crossroads death did sing

Her lies spun webs around his heart

Alibis and dark arts played their part

Demonic deals sealed with wicked kiss

In her embrace heaven knew he’d miss

He saw halos where horns did grow

Falling deeper where the shadows flow

He begged for daylight in the devil’s nest

Lost in her labyrinth without rest

A puppet master she held his strings

His cries for mercy

Devil-pleasing hymns

Her laughter echoed through the sins

This dance with danger

He’d never win.left. for dead on a bed of black satin sheets with a single black rose his heart she put into nternal sleep

Her lies spun webs around his heart

Alibis and dark arts played their part

Demonic deals sealed with wicked kiss

In her embrace heaven knew he’d miss
