Мне страшно. Целуя тебя, я цветы ядовитые рву. Твою непорочность любя, я преступной мечтою живу. Мне страшно. В улыбке твоей затаен безнадежный укор. На дне твоих детских очей -- моя мука, мой грех, мой позор. Мне страшно. В объятьях моих твою душу навеки сгубя, в огне твоих ласк молодых я сгорю, проклиная тебя!
