Temptress

She breaks down my walls,

And I resist and resist,

Her tender charm works its way in,

Unraveling layer after layer.

---

And when I finally give in,

When I am finally vulnerable,

Ready to give her everything,

She leaves me alone.

---

Freezes me out,

Leaving me stuck,

In the silence of life,

And my passion creeps deeper still.

---

Torture and mayhem rule the world,

Chaos and insanity ignite the flames.
