Victoria Dianne

I dreamt of her last night,
It was so real I could taste the salt on her lips,
and the vengeance on her tongue
So sweet and so violent.
I believed she loved me
but only for a moment,
She was so tender 
seemingly veracious.
Till I lifted her black veil
and saw the lies behind 
her sparkling amber eyes.
That almost gets me every time.

Oh, wow, this sounds like finding a giant snake"Till I lifted her black veil and saw the lies behind her sparkling amber eyes." Well done!
