The Soft Contours of My Demise

Darkening my door a shadow in the night, I was sitting very still freezing with the fright A silhouette of menace was coming into view, heart did cease its beating stomach wants to spew At first it had no meaning this shadow on the wall, and with clarity regained began the tipping of my fall Detaching from the shadow a man stepped into light, throwing off this feeling I wedded with his sight Instantly attracted by the glimmer in his eyes, walking in a daze bedazzled with his lies The curve of his mouth seduced me to lust, brain was yelling NO ! this man you cannot trust !! Taken in his arms frigid in this hold freezing every muscle my head does start to roll As neck revealed a contour he simply couldn’t resist, the mask of seduction fell with the parting of his lips Slipping into transcend the meaning of the flesh, As my life does dwindle my soul begins it’s rest And every now and then as we’re hunting in the night, I live within my memories the remembered grace of life
