Lust

A riddle poem I had to do for a class assignment.

I am unforgiving,
Ruthless,
Dragging people one by one into my clutches.

I am a knife,
I wedge my way into your head,
Once I'm in,
I stay there until they can face the truth.

I make people lonely,
I make them want what they can't have.

I am an old perfume,
Sweet but suffocating.
No one can escape me,
Unless they aren't alone.

I trick people,
I force them to play my games.
Tears complete me,
And I acquire a lot.

I sound like aggravated sighs,
I feel like betrayal,
I cause pain.

I make people face things,
They would otherwise bury,
Deep into their sea of thoughts.

I am what fools wise men,
And punishes fools.
