Viper Song

Into the night I run and vainly seek your flesh
Your silken scales make promises of delight
Into the void, my love, your false light beckons
After you sink your teeth into my neck
Will you cry out in the passion of the moment?
Or writhe around the bed to free yourself?

Into the harsh sunlight you try to cast me out
And in this light I see the viper's face
Goodbye to you my dearest serpent near...
