Prey

I’m pondering my thoughts wishing upon a star hope that my words don’t get lost in translation face to face with the magician traces of his skin on mine repenting for his sins he shot me a grin he looks mighty familiar I’m searching for a trigger he’s lurking from afar had a thing for…

My dear Melancholy

My dear Melancholy Did you let your ego win Or did it get you down on two knees Am I too late to the party Or are you totally consumed I know you watch me from a distance Hoped that things could’ve been different Bitterness in your delivery A slippery slope Polished intuition Up ahead…

Poison

He said I was a smooth criminal I admit I got my way more than once Have you ever been stared down by a man He may as well have been on his knees Looked upon me like I was a goddess He couldn’t believe his eyes Didn’t know what to do with his hands…

Exuviate.

I shed skin A million snakes A trillion aches Withered away Face to face Demons within A million sins Traces on my silky flesh This lace fits so well These hips so swell Seductive hiss Plumped lips Secrets I’ll never spill The lesson The lesson On repeat Remind me Rewind it Better yet Fast forward…
