The Tears of a Demon

I remember your lips.

They tasted like cinnamon and honey.

I kissed you when you read to me for the first time.

You always blushed so hard when I kept doing it because of how much I liked it.

I watched you breath out smoke when I paused.

I wish you noticed it before I.

Because it hit me hard that;

Your lungs would fill with burning coals and your throat would scream.

I remember how hard I cried that day.

I had to catch my tears before they hit your skin;

Because I did not want my own tears to burn your skin as they do mine.

You tried to wipe them away, but I hurt your wrist trying to stop you.

I cried so hard when you finally did wipe one away.

You had screamed in agony when the hot coals touched you.

It made me realise;

I could never kiss you, nor let you near me.

A demon can never lie with a angel.
