Darling, darling
My ever illusive
mistress!
Why so fickle, why so
cruel?
For you turn away from
me,
The moment I let go of
Your ever controlling
hold
You’ve made sleep a
currency
I must pay in
gold
Or be made rotten
Or be made mold
Do I dare admit
I grow weary, I ever
ache
To howl like an animal
To live in the mystery
and fantasy
Of the glowing, siren
she calls herself the
moon
Or to run a day on no
clock
To be a bird and join
a flock
To dance in the colors
of war
To be myself, to soar
Yet the price of chaos
Is not worth your loss
So I kiss your feet
So I worship your
altar
I am a taken woman
I wear your leather
I wear your halter
Little know, few
understand
How I must fear and
fight
To be gifted your hand
And wedded we are
Until I stumble
Until I fail
Forgive my mind,
For it is frail
Darling, darling
My ever-illusive
mistress!
Why so fickle, why so
cruel?
Where is my freedom?
For you I become Edom
Without my birthright,
Bathed in red
I live as something
dead
Then beg you, then
plead
To have your need
And drink my
Broken greed
