Love Song Of The Fly

I take offer of your open window, oh

and permit myself the nearness of you

even just the scent of what you've left behind

drives me in circles of lust

oh your crumbs and your dust

I enter each room and perform for you

might you love me alone for my skill and grace

how we tease and chase

this song for you I hum in your favorite key

please render me adoringly

But sweet ribbons you vex me

when your treachery holds me fast

my adoration only led me straight into your trap

I beheld them a gift for me

never dreamed they would extinguish me

though perfumed, my wings are torn

a fallen warrior

Oh why do you despise me

Only criticize me

your wrath collides with the love that resides

in kaleidoscope eyes

you care not for my speed and bravery

you only think me base and dirty

but I love you still darling

multiplying in my eyes

I wished only to care for you

make beautiful your castaways

you see all life is bound with this grace

I regenerate hope with

every morsel on which I feed

and in return all I ask is compassion and tenderness

that's all any lover really needs

And now you know

I cherished you so

I'll perish, though

become your dust
