Gilded Poison

A smile so kind you feel compelled to smile back yet you know that its wrong. Pink shades and party hats, balloons and banners masking something more sinister yet you sit and watch with interest. Eyes like silver and skin like white gold you realize that you are already in her hold allowing one phrase to enter your mind. Don't, Blink.....A voice so sweet it could give you insulin shock, a touch so warm it could melt ice and yet her kiss....blood.......Lesson learned....don't judge a book by its cover, because the greatest of monsters, wear the sweetest of faces.
