Devil's Kiss
I kissed you when luna's Star was bled,
I kissed you when your curse was said,
I kissed you when your soul was taken,
I kissed you when your body was shaken.
I will kiss you when you hate me most,
For I am the Devil, and my Kiss is a Demonic Host!
I kissed you as Sol's Gem went down,
I kissed you when you lost your crown,
I kissed you when on your deathbed you lied,
I kissed you when you left this world to die!
I will kiss you when you hate me most,
For I am a Devil, and my Kiss is a Demonic Host!
