Venom (Black Widow)

(Collab by Indie and Crimsin)

Crimson

I crawl up your spine
make my way to your neck and inject my venom

My poison spiraling through your veins
You’re paralyzed as I stick my fangs
Into your very being sucking out your soul

Such pretty poison
Like a tortured day dream
I cling to you, when the sun’s too bright

I chase the darkness
The evanescence of the fall
Screaming when I fail to drown

I smash myself upon the ground
Never dying, like I am some impervious china doll
Keening for the venom of that bite

I lie to myself
I love you with all my heart
Spinning my silken web around you
With my bite hoping to keep you mine forever

My immortal love
Once my fangs tasted your blood
I was lost in your eyes, your taste
you flooded me with a poison of your own

I live for the illusions of us
To chase the angels away
And let my demons feast

I look to you like a child
Seeking the taste of razor-bladed candy
That I know will be my undoing

Tangled in your bloodied web
I chain myself to the torment
I would rather die than be released

For the venom, the addiction
For the fragile delusions we spin
I gag for the tainted poison of my Black Widow

Please let me never be without your love
