Lovephobic

I see your beauty, Beyond denial. Surrounded by hungry flames, I see his bones feeding them, He loved you to pieces. And even with his final breath dwindling in those flames he still whispered. _I love you_ And now your platinum claws, With a hypnotic purple dripping from those smooth tips, Turn my knees to jelly, Calling me, As a chaotic rainbow of seduction gleams on your lips, And spills onto your leather lingerie, I can feel the fear in me morphing into desire for you. Your name is the only thing I can breathe to. But I take a gun and sink some lead into my feet to slow them down. I break my neck to loosen the stare before I turn to a pillar of salt. I pluck my eyes because one more second of your magnificence and I will be another meal for the flames. And slowly my shadow disappears from the tips of your coffee brown feet. I have won the battle. But am not sure of the war. _lovephobic_ Elliepoet™
