A Disguise For Poisoned Thorns

Lure me in with lust. Tear me down in the end. Don’t be so cliche, It ruins a sterile heart. I want no part in your demented world. The roses you try to win me over with Are a mere disguise for poisoned thorns. Your thoughts are artless, Yet each move you make Is laced with lethal sin.

Hi Darla! Lust, conflict, heart break. Ingredients for a tragic love gone bad. You sketch it all with grace here. Well done!....BH
