I love you for the grief that lurks within Your languid spirit, and because you wear Corruption with a vague and childish air And with your beauty know the depths of sin Because shame cuts you and holds you like a gin And virtue dies in you slain by despair Since evil has you tangled in its snare And triumphs on the soul good cannot win I love you since you know remorse and tears And in your troubled loveliness appears The spot of ancient crimes that writhe and hiss
I love you for your hands that calm and bless The perfume of your sad and slow caress The avid poison of your subtle kiss
