Dark and Dangerous Like a Secret

She enters a city of neon lights clothed with dark intentions She is a creature of mystery strolling through the shadows of time, forever young Having caught the eye of an admirer He soon melts into her charms His crimson tie gives her a thrill She is poised for a night of passion But dawn finds her lover alone, with a 'hickey' on his neck She is not there to meet the sun, Having vanished into the night She enters the city each night dark and dangerous like a secret, always ready for a night of passion But first, a bite! 5-30-18 Free Verse Only-Pick a Theme Contest Sponsor: Laura Loo
