Bite my tongue my teeth are hard
Like a crossbow broken bard
Things are seldom as they seem
Choking on a shattered dream
Frozen circle sterling stream
Hold my breath suppress a scream
Poisoned from the dimly hidden
Kiss the lips of the forbidden
Deceptive like the cool night starred
Like an ardent defaced card
