My Gorgeous Catastrophe

You are a gorgeous catastrophe;

constantly leaving collateral damage wherever you wander.

You're a parasite really;

never have I felt more alive than when you were sucking the life out of me.

Almost drained me out a couple of times.

You destroyed palaces,

you were a mobile vessel of destruction;

crumbling cathedrals.

You were the hurricane no one was prepared for.

You were the fire that came in the dead of night;

the one that no one was insured for.

Your kiss was lethal,

your gaze made me weak,

your touch gave me life,

and like I've said before;

you are a gorgeous catastrophe.
