The Scorned Lovers Rage

The Scorned Lovers Rage

A Poem by Shannon

The vicious manipulator, the predator divine,
The tempest, the torrent, the animal is thine
The silken words drip from rubied lips,
Your eyes stay trained upon her hips
Her crimson nails trail upon your skin
Coaxing your desire from deep within
Her teeth, they graze your neck so warm
Her fingers tease your shirt, ripped and torn
Her speech snakes through, your vulnerable mind
And soon enough, as you will find
Her lies will hold you, still and content
Her eyes will betray you, with false lament
Her grip will tighten around your soul
Her promises will ease you of the life you stole
Her very presence will invoke your lust
And she will slowly command your love, your trust,
She will then play you, like a pristine violin
Plucking at strings, you've hidden within
Her motives will evade your thought, your grasp
Her intentions hidden behind velvet and clasp
Her gaze will weaken you
Her stare will deny
The plans she has, her revenge, her lie
You've unleashed a monster, of untold wit
A true thing of legend, though you refuse to admit
The woman you captured, she who you deceived from the start
Who you never imagined to be this vengeful and tart
You allowed her then, to believe in your emptiest of speech
Never allowing your loyalty to hover within her reach
And now you must face, the turned Temptress's art
The student turned master, The prisoner holding the key part
The fabled Woman scorned, to strong to fall
She's uncovered your lies, not one but all
So deal with your punishment, as she readies the stage,
For her very final act "The Scorned Lovers Rage"

Stunner. It read just like it was leading up to a play and took me right there to the stage. WOW!!!
