In a ditch of darkness
I awoke
Nothing to be seen,
Just a word she spoke
Oh, "Love", she purred
As cute as a kitten
And just like that,
I was truly smitten
Beckoning me forwards,
I blindly walked
Ignoring my fears at which I balked
Faster towards her, my heart be still
All of my desires she promised to fulfill
Jet black hair,
Down her shoulders, streamed
And olive brown eyes with longing gleamed
Arms outstretched
As if with pure intention
To take away my fear with her pretension
Her pretension
Her pretension
Something venomous between us, stood
In a web of deceit
Oh had I only, understood,
Her sultry smile tugged me ahead
Oh to a destiny a child
Would forever dread
But the arrow that pierced was tipped with poison
Loosed by her hand with a lack of compassion
Invisible to the end,
Her meaning now bared
As I realized her heartless soul never cared
Jet black hair,
Down her shoulders, streamed
And olive brown eyes with longing gleamed
Arms outstretched
As if with pure intention
To take away my fear with her pretension
Her pretension
Her pretension
A light from a distance,
A Shadow revealed
A form dark yet slender,
So easily concealed
A motion, a notion,
A reflection hard to perceive
An image over murky waters,
I dared not conceive
Jet black hair,
Down her shoulders, streamed
And olive brown eyes with longing gleamed
Arms outstretched
As if with pure intention
To take away my fear with her pretension
Her pretension
Her pretension
As the life from my body drained
A word, from my mouth,
Resonated and strained
"Why?" I gasped with utter incomprehension
But ripping my heart out
Was her only intention
Her only pretension
Her pretension
Her pretension
