Sara Chansarkar Poet Rhyme

Fatal Limerence

She simmered in the warmth of his gaze
Sugar of his lips set her ablaze
Skin quivered at his slightest touch
Changing hues-red, crimson and such

A look at herself now, in the mirror
Skin pale with no trace of color
Sunken eyes set in deep dark rings
Painfully waiting for the end cancer brings

Picturing him in someone else’s bed
A thought she couldn’t shake off her head
That night, she plunged the dagger
He would always belong to her
