Fire Under Flesh

Envy‘s, seething dreams enmesh an endless fever in my flesh

Searing spirit, mind and heart cauterising rational thought

Magma surging through these veins untameable

Thirsting flame, fed by quenchless fire this zealous heart, is bursting with desire

A fire-storm of fear has frozen me my passion’s pyre, is burning inwardly

For many years, I have clung to jealousy an emerald-eyed monstrosity

My emerald-eyed monstrosity

Envy, my sweet mistress speaks in whispers hot as etna’s peak

Rising with the lava-flow from lakes of fire far below

Beneath the molten-undertow my pulse grows weak

The full inferno of this ire a cold and unconsuming fire

Swept higher into hate-scorched skies that fall before these jaded eyes

A place where lost desires are left to seethe beneath, like fire under flesh

Like fire under flesh
