Gypsy Angel

Seduction personified with one turn of 
   her ivory skin,
Eyes of wanted coal watch you with 
   calculated temptation.
Attempting to look away, I hold your 
    gaze.
Without words, your mine...as others 
    were before...helpless...the woman 
     that will haunt you.

When you lie next to your love, it is her
     that you imagine.
You relent, but no matter...she was 
      never yours for the taking. 

Gypsy angel with earthbound powers.
She's in your dreams, at every turn, 
      with every glance.
She haunts you...chains you down with 
      baded breath and raised brow.
She tempts you...never allowing you to 
       give in.

Gypsy angel, fallen from above,
Her tethered wings reach around you.
She haunts you,  comes to you,   
       beckons...never nearing close 
       enough to touch.

Gypsy angel, she riddles your mind, 
       consumes your thoughts.
She haunts you, plagues you, leaves 
        you guilt-ridden without cause.
In time she will not be forgotten...
        but knows you are now forsaken. 

Your Gypsy angel,
She haunts you,
There will never be another, 
Your Gypsy angel....
Now seeking My next victim,
Smiles as she vanishes at dusk.....
