You steal the blush
Across my skin
And hide it from
My searching eyes

You take the knife
To my honey limbs
And cut me in
To bite sized parts

The hole is dug
And Maple Box,
My new confinement,
Lowered down

From the Devil’s Jaw
Don’t rescue me
I take this fate
My punishment

You marvel at my
Sweet surrender
That absent will
That brought us here

The moment where
Heart Beat stops
Blood Runs cold
Dark unfolds
