Set Up To Fail
She was destined to fail
At this challenge for sure.
Demons barking in her mind
Held her captive, not pure.
Addicted to adventure,
She sought to do her best.
Slain feelings lay dormant,
As she attempted the worst known test.
She could not abstain,
For her nature was trained….
No matter what happened
She would try until drained.
The woes in her head
Were familiar and true.
Her vain challenger was impressed
With her efforts, and tenacity too.
A test each had failed, but she had come close.
For she had determination and effort, this sweet little vampire.
