Oblivion Calls

Succumbing to the allure of lust, she found seduction in betrayal. And acquiesced to her bass desires; in love's realistic portrayal. Sowed deep within her flirtatious heart, infidelity's seed got planted. And nurtured by hope's high exceptions; happiness was taken for granted. Shunned by all in an uncaring world; her reality supersedes theirs. And with so many sins to forgive, she just gave up on God and prayers. A victim of her low self-esteem; she's cried enough tears to fill oceans. And believes only death can provide sanctuary from her emotions. Oblivion calls compellingly; from the fragmented fringes of pain. And beset by thoughts of suicide; she questions if she's going insane.

True, it's victims of low self esteem who are easily lured and suffer much in this uncaring world. Loved this write. #7....
