In twilight's hush, where shadows play
A serpent stirs, with secrets gray
It slithers forth, with eyes aglow
Seeking hearts, where love does flow
With venomous kiss, it claims its prey
And feasts upon the tender heart's sway
It devours the passions, the deepest desires
Leaving naught but hollow, empty fires
The snake's dark song, a haunting refrain
Echoes through the chambers of the brain
A reminder of love's treacherous game
Where hearts are broken, and souls are claimed
