"Guilty As Charged"

Your crime is heinous and you do it without remorse

Conflicted I sit - Conflicted I weep

In shock from your actions, I lay still like a corpse

Such beauty driven by a beast, you speak in tongues

I react, for my actions are without God speed

I inhaled your scent on Day 1 and forever tainted were my lungs

Often I ask God to explain what I did to deserve such from you

I'm not a bad person, I'm not a bad soul

Is my crime the fact that I remain next to you through and through?

From wit's end to eternity - I did vow to you, do you recall?

It is certainly true, when I wake up next to you

Truth is, I feel smaller than small

About as big as a bug, about as snug as one in a rug

We are tight like a hug, intoxicated with your love like a drug

With veins cold like a vamp, you can stare and steal my soul

Torturous and methodical you are

Your crime swallows me whole

Yet no police squad will ever whisk you away, you're too smart

Such a crime of the century - least for my life time it is

You are guilty of loving me with all of your heart.
