Abena, a queen of beauty,
the one who lights up fire in my bones.
Her soft scales pierce my skin and hurt me in love,
they make me bleed out anxieties and fears
while the scary comfort of her palms clothes my wound.
Her hotly cold touch strengthens my mind,
yet her devilish smile sends shivers down my spines.
For her sake, I don’t mind turning a beast;
feared by all but loved by one.
I’m in love with a goddess.

Excellent.
This is definitely the sort of poem one would write if one were in love with someone who was part woman (at the top of her body) and part snake (at the bottom of her body).
