A/N: I wrote this a long time ago in a fit of despair. It's full of allusions that will make no sense to anyone but me.
….
You're the worm in the apple
The Fire and Shadow
You're burning me up and sucking me in
You're the serpent who wants me to sin1
..
You're the spear that holds me to the wind-rocked tree2
You're the vengeful god in the wine-dark sea3
You're powerful lure for the dying heart
You're one of the wolves that tear me apart
..
You're a fallen angel, a collapsing star
And I've ventured down your road too far
You're the Ring4 in my hand, the rotting gold
I'll follow you into the fire if I can't loose my hold
