She's staring at me, eyes burning holes in my heart
I know she knows, she knows I'm not who I say I am
Even in disguise she can sniff out the woman in me
She has me cornered, lustful words tumbling out of her mouth
I'm in a daze, everything feels so warm
Like I'm a total person, I see everything in a birds eye view...
and do nothing to stop it
The pulling of clothes
The nails against skin
She has her way with me
Leaving me breathless and alive
Any man would die to be in my shoes
Without a trace she leaves me there picking up articles of mussed clothes
A day goes by, until I see those lusty eyes again
My heart thumps beneath my breast as I see her with yet another
An amused smile is sent my way
She is taking her next victim, a male, into a empty classroom
And so it seems Lust herself, has no preference between sexes

Interesting. I felt that it was same sex lust and it seems that I was corretc. Good job, and good luck.

creepy
Where do I go to meet this woman?
You have written a poem of suspense as I waited for something to happen and it certainly did in that last line. The 'classroom' bit fascinates me that this is happening in a school. I bet he learns in that calss room !!
Enjoyable poem with a sinister theme and a bit of humour. I enjoyed it.

Thank you for your entry. That last line is amazing. It sounded kind of scarcastic (whether it was supposed to or not, I don't know) but, it was a memorable way to end the poem. A good message that lust is not strictly associated with any one gender, but with both. Good write.
