Matthew Densley - Formaldehyde Mistress

Rid me of your glowing ember
The one that burns within desire
What price I'd pay to not remember
The soothing smoke from off your fire

To hold you gently in my hand
To feel your kiss upon my lips
A bliss that most can't understand
There is no high that could eclipse

You left me in a puff of smoke
Yet still I feel your presence near
There never was a word you spoke
But whispers I could always hear

Now that you're gone, I can be free
My time with you, I'll never miss
Though poison as you were to me
I still can't help but crave your kiss
