Jekyll & Hyde

Creating experiments,

To bring some good into his life

With some great success

He will soon have what he desires.

 

Her...

 

He would do anything

To claim her heart as his own

Whispering sweet promises

And seducing her with his touch.

 

Dreams...

 

His thoughts have raged and screamed

Her name in the silence of his still world.

Stalking in the darkness of the shadows

For as long as he can remember.

 

He waits...

 

Patience and planning

The perfect potion to get what he desires.

Yearning for the bittersweet seductress

He should not have...but needs.

 

Good vs. Evil...

 

He transforms into something vile

A cobra lost in a trance

For his obsession over something so beautiful

Feeding the fire of his everlasting frenzy of lust.

 

Patience...

 

She falls diligently,

Falling head over heels in love

With his manipulating charms and sweet tenderness

She is the goddess of his dreams.

 

Desire...

 

The tenderness quickly turns forceful,

Monstorous blows to the unsuspecting victim of his lust.

A game that should never be played by fools

With the devil hidden in disguise.

 

Evil has won...

 

Terrifying screams,

Fall into deafening ears in the silenced night

Filling the skies with terror and fear

To any unsuspecting prey of his lustful desires.

 

"There is a fine line between a good man...and a bad one..."

Wow, just wow. Very strong visuals and very true statement as well. A constant battle with the scales tipping whenever until one wins. I loved the rhythm that you gave this piece, very appropriate. Excellent work.

Your words are true. A fine line between good and evil. People can walk a line for years and fall down to low levels. I like the way you set-up the poem. Always battles to be fought. Sometime evil will not win. Need to hold on to kindness and hope. We hope? Thank you for a amazing poem.

A strange mix of gender without a clear statement of motives, nor a view of a relationship between two people, perceived as having a desire they share. It points to an embellishment of a child's play that's being soap-boxed as an adult event, relying on trust and betrayal, mindlessly, as its tools. Great write!
