Echoes of a Venomous Kiss
A whispered promise, sweet as
wine,
Crossed a fatal, hidden line.
A deadly game of hearts betrayed,
In the quiet traps the shadows laid.
Sweet deception spun the thread,
Where trust was broken, love bled
red.
A honeyed word, a venomous bite,
Swallowed by the endless night.
The mask slips down, the truth is
bare,
A fatal, cold, and dark affair.
For every lie that serpent breath,
Brings the swift, embracing death.
