Forbidden temptation

In twilight's hush, where shadows play A serpent stirs, with secrets gray It slithers forth, with eyes aglow Seeking hearts, where love does flow

With venomous kiss, it claims its prey And feasts upon the tender heart's sway It devours the passions, the deepest desires Leaving naught but hollow, empty fires

The snake's dark song, a haunting refrain Echoes through the chambers of the brain A reminder of love's treacherous game Where hearts are broken, and souls are claimed
