Allurer's Embrace

Enchanting eyes. So brown like autumn leaves. Mesmerizing smile. Fairer than snowflakes. Beguiled by my delusion of what you are. Painted the picture so perfect. One's gaze has to be through my eyes. Portrait so perfect. I tucked its sharp ends away. They prick me. And each cut pierces my soul With your baneful caress You make it all better I submerse deeper each day To your treachery Your covetousness, feign so patent they cram me But again, you plant qualm And I end up dubious of my sanity Shifting blame to my imagination Only one to make me laugh Without uttering a word You know just the buttons Peculiar acrimony So calamitous yet so inimitable You are a part of me I am part of you Imprisoned by words Actions dancing to a different tune Trapped in fiction Enforced to overlook Your ills, I am weary But again, with your crooked claws You pull me nigh Maul away all my trepidation And I, gently reach out for your embrace.
