Hunter's Kiss - Rasputina

Here’s a sad story about a deer and a man

A romantic scene from a lullaby. 
In a clearing green, where his eyes met mine. 
I was frozen motion. Oh! His bow was raised. 
Then the fleeting notion-that my life he'd save. 

But I saw it coming, flying through the air. 
Feathered backside humming. Miss me, hit me where 
Where it will only hurt me, not a mortal wound. 
Leave me lying dirty, someone would find me soon. 

I have never felt like this before. 
Felt my body sinking to the grassy floor 
I have never known a love like this. 
Felt the flaming arrows of the Hunter's Kiss. 

My life is not mine. 
Like a dog or a wife. 
He has taken his time. 
He has taken my life. 

I could see the steaming of his cloudy breath. 
No, I was not dreaming. 
I was next to death. 
As I lay there twitching, then my legs he tied. 
There was nothing missing on the day I died.
