Wicked Seduction

Her love is a tenacious hurricane
A vicious tide knocking me down
A heavy, steady, angry rain
blanket of water consuming the ground

   Her touch is poison, penetrating my flesh
An addictive venom inside my veins
   Lethal toxins that weren't meant to mesh
Taking my life by the reigns 

   Demonic and sexy in her red high heels
Sporting a halo that hangs by a thread
   A thief of hearts, she carelessly steals
Her disease rapidly spreads

   Pleasant and painful, a package deal
Drawing me in with sexual bait
   Her affection for me is far from real
Though my desires and I debate

   I'm haunted by the ghosts of those fallen
From the spell of her wicked finesse 
   But her powerful grip, has me stalling
She is a masterful temptress

This is the woman that make other women wonder if men a willfully blind. You have described her to a T. Hope he gets to leave her clutches soon.
