Lolita

You could not resist, could you
You said you would not, could not

I thought I had lured you out to play
But I scarcely know
Who's the hunter and
Who's the hunted.

There have been flickers
Just little moments
Times when you looked at me

As if the little death
Is something I should know

Do I wear Red Riding Hood's cloak
Or a matador's cape?

I sang nursery rhymes in my dreams
But I was alone in the woods
When you bared your teeth

The ram has touched the wall either way.

I just..
I just wanted to know what it was like.
