Mistress

As the wind whispers your name
I hear my screams in the air
Although I know everything's insane
I find myself wishing I were there

Clouds of despair around my soul
Summer renders the days long
Waiting for you to make me whole
Night falls in spite of right of wrong

I waste my days wandering these halls
Listening to the echoes of my fears
As I study the ageless paintings upon the walls
The wind calls out a warning through the years

When darkness has at last fell
You appear in the mist and come into my arms
Every caress takes me closer to hell
Still, I cannot help but surrender to your charms

Just a small taste is what you give
Later you say we both may feast
Although I still have another life to live
You tell me in death pleasure will increase

Now my thoughts are my own once more
And I look back on all the lies
Even as I passed willingly through the door
I should have read my fate written in your eyes
