Poem Title:
Poem
After she drank his bitter wine of selfish, pathetic love She slyly sang him her haunted chant "The laughs on you", she crooned in her soft malicious tune At times, she could act with chicane She had many charms when treated well... Deadly ones - when not Oh yes... She herself may at times have sinned But he-had the stain of evil, paltry love Now...Inside her gossamer labyrinth she lay Carefully, diligently spinning her web Revealing nothing-and everything She'd weave her silky snare inside his heart Laying her toxic eggs of betrayed despair Spinning her poisonus venom of painful truth Oh yes... Her bite is deadly now She could have been his 'Velvet Rose' But, he crushed her petals rare Ending her silken dreams With his evil malicious schemes Her spider's web became untethered Attaching itself by a single thread To his shoddy veil of evil, selfish love Now...She is the hunter And...He is the hunted In the coming eve... She'd deliver her poisonous, lethal sting He'd be noones's lover now Her threads would cut his miserable flesh Her deadly venom would seal his fate Remaining nothing more Than an ancient, slithering shadow All along the castle walls For some time a deadly secret she doth keep "Revenge”, she whispers, while he sleeps She was once his only lady With ivory skin and beauty fair She fed him nectar from her raven hair His betrayal seared her hemorrhaged heart She'd warned him with many words and fiery stares "Thou shalt not indulge in wicked fare Be ever so watchful, do not betray Beware, where thou heart doth leave Take heed" said she, "Just who thy seed deceives". In her chamber dark at night, this maiden fair Planned his demise with scourged nectar, bitter sweet Stirring her venomous, poisonous treat Or would dagger to his heart she’d plant Bid him die a dark and painful lingering death Upon his sleeping body that she'd leave As she crept silently into his chamber - These words she bitterly but victoriously said... "Thou shalt betray no more. Thou has sinned against me... Taken my love in shame "Betray no more", she said". But now Thou is thankfully, forever DEAD!" Her silken threads had cut his miserable flesh Her deadly venom had sealed his fate Now...he remained nothing more Than an ancient, slithering shadow... All along her castle walls ____________________________________ #
