Illuminating Beauty

She holds within her grasp
Such a wicked little power
She'll draw you into her soul
And turn your heart stone sour

She'll lure you in with her pretty eyes
Like sapphires picked from Heaven
Than turn around with the same stare
Stab you in the back with secret daggers

She'll tantalize you with twisted lies
Oozing from her cherry red lips
She'll make you believe every word
All while you're begging for one kiss

Be careful what you wish for
Watch your every thought
She illuminates such beauty and grace
Her electricity will kill you with her shock
