The eyes forsake me to see
what lies beneath this lust
Her radiant beauty beams like the pearl moon
but underneath her wings, she is a cluster of sins
Tempting and yet decieving-
like a stripper amorous love
I desire her, this goddess of nightmare
I am trapped in pure illusion
She is priceless and yet flashy
her words moan like a gurgling stream
I am so in love with my own weakness
My self destruction lies before my own eyes
But I must feed the flesh
the flesh that has never seen beauty in such
She is my lovely nightmare and I want her

"my self destruction....." yes, exactly, i can agree with this.....why is it we always want what is not best for us...or in the very least, the opposite of what we already have?
perplexing this thing called life.....wonderful deeply written work of poetry

Strong and deep. Wonderful dark and sad, longing for something one knows not to touch, for it is deadly. Wanting and lust for things that are evil.
Wonderful written.
