Burnt maroon

A hidden secret is the cure

For those who are demure

When the flesh of a dear

Tied with lace and more

Begging you to open the door

Snowy white, rusty chains core

Open that basement door

Forget the way you feel sore

For there I never asked for war

After all that shedding 

My skin he wore
