Why?

you thought she was a demon
but she was an angel in disguise
didn't you see it in her eyes
she showed you your soul
she made you feel whole
didn't you see it in her eyes
why did you retreat
into her darkness
when she showed you
the light
the fire in your heart
why did you retreat
into her darkness
afraid of her passion
you said she was poison
afraid of her loving
you said she was lethal
her kisses laced with venom
numbed your dumb tongue
her whispers toxic vapour
suppressed your words
with your last breath
why do you curse her
when she showed you
the light
why did you retreat
into her darkness
