Under the Devils Moon
He came to her under the light of the moon
promising her riches & plenty
His devilish smile enchanted her to the point
of elation
but she didn't understand what it took to be
his
Soon she'd realize what it is she had to give
in exchange for his favor
He initiated their first kiss & this sent her spiraling
into the underworld
as she savored the flavor of his lips
Her moist lips raged with passion & longing as she
begged for more of his love language
in French
Her mind was fried as the sparks flickered to
flame
& became so uncontrollable that she couldn't
remember her name
She was gone & so immersed that she hadn't
realized how quickly she'd been cursed
He was so well versed in this game that was in
his nature to play
that he didn't need to rehearse
She was one of many pieces on a checkered board
in his colorful life that
came to life on nights like these
She ate from his tree & seen that it was good which
opened her eyes to things only
the wise could see
She was now in a dream of which she could
never wake
& as fate would have it her soul became
his forever
They were bound together so tightly that she lost
her identity the more her affinity grew
He consumed her whole while his fruitful seeds
took root in a place where her soul
once was
He was now her drug & she his fiend on an eternal
high that extended beyond the skies &
below the grounds of earthly existence
As the sun rose she came to understand what it
meant to be engulfed by his fiery
flame & was addicted to
his infinitely devilish game
