Charmed by your vision

happenstance. Serenading
the dance of romance.

You snuck in

I didn't feel a thing

cracked the code - no longer 'safe'

cleared me out

siphoned off my ventricle

stole my Soul, left without a trace

before the happy ending -

proved to be fiction

crest-fallen, heart rending

as if winds flipping pages

of a story never to unfold.

Switching between grief

then rages...

flames charred, gone cold

Your Saccharinated sweet 'nothings'

left an aftertaste, rancid.

Devoid; incapable of real loving

I traded my heart

for the trick of your illusion.

A Chameleon under rainbow skies

adjusting your demeanor

regurgitating syllables in

everchanging lies...

Lost and Forlorn

I walk along twilight's desolate sands

wishing to be unborn

as the cruelty of life mocks...

Oceanic noise crashing against rocks

drowns out my own bellowing...

as I lift a mollusk to my ear, in vain

Shell-shocked, I could've sworn

I heard it whisper your name
