Charmed,Sold,Taken
A Knock on the door and
my eyes awoken
I stared at the ceiling for
a minute or two
My bones refused to get
up to open
Louder and louder I think
it knew this too
Battle in my head I could
barely think
I walked to the door like I
was broken
Reached for the
knob and lungs filled
with
matter,heavy and thick
Three shots of tequila
was all I had taken
I opened the door as if
on a mission
Nice polished shoes,black
pants and shirt nicely
ironed too
Tray in hand,his words of
concern for my isolation
Danced out of my ear
with obvious jubilation
One look was all I needed
to be taken
By those luscious lips and
charming infectious eyes
too
Matter forgotten as I was
lost in those eyes that
seemed like heaven
One look and I was
sold,one look and I was
taken
For the 'Taken' contest
