D I V I N E

He walks barefoot with the moonlight shining around his head like a halo;
It seems ironic. He laughs with you about it beneath a sky pregnant with stars,
Plucks the cigarette from between his lips and grins,
Razor sharp teeth,
You think, if looks could kill I'd surely have been dead long ago. 
Take my hand, he says
And you do, because how could you refuse a boy so bewitching?
But he is not a boy, the gentle wind whispers from somewhere between the trees,
He is a monster, a demon; 
Half boy half darkness,
And his wrath will swallow you whole

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
