To Steal Passion

Circle her, memorize her.
Glimpse her face upon every head.
Listen for the slightest mumble of her voice.
Hear luring whispers crowd your mind.
Approach a cliff...
dive into the thick, enveloping atmoshpere.
Pray for a harmless landing.
Smell a billion roses bloom at once.
Roll in them.
Kill them.
Bleed them to death.
