Retrospection!
Her eyes,
wicked, cursed
Tempting to
a canny feast
Crying
blood, an unsaid need
Brutal, yet
you fall to be served!
Fear not,
you will not be harmed!
She
announces swiftly, standing still
In state of
dismay, you hear her say
An offer,
tempestuous, so hard to let go
You let her
hold, piece of self
Let her
nails screech through, and
You see
blood rolling over your feet
As she
quenched her thrust upon
As slipped
past the time, grew the lust
One that she
called her dark love, mystical, like
Shadow of
darkness, never to exist, but
Some
flickering moments of imagination
Knock,
knock! Ends the dream; Nightmare?
You look
around, dozed, and lost
Trying to
remember the taste of her lips still
Frightened,
a sense of being cheated, conned
Alas! What was
it?
Love, lust,
or a mere act of selfishness
As life acts
every now and than
Winks and
mocking upon our stupidity
Laughing
over naïve consciences
Passes by,
showing us the mirror of truth
Mirror! That
never lies.
