Died

In the flash of a moment , she comes swirling around from nowhere. She's youthful , young and full of life . Her presence intoxicates the air , her laughter fuels my wanton soul. I dig deeper into her...every minute, every passing breath , till she envelops me in her comforting embrace.

Such is her charm that i start breathing her before she knows. If sin is pleasure , i sail in its vast oceans. I ride her crests and troughs.By then , she's me and I'm her.

And it is then , that she reveals her true colors. She's not the balm, i realize , she is the very sting i thought she would nurse. Her hidden weapons , her calculated moves catch me unawares everytime. Her presence reeks of the smell of deceit. She's savage, like the wild fire , destroying what she had herself created once.

That is how she goes for the kill . An unexpected moment , a sudden stab , a gaping wound and throbbing pain that lasts forever.

That is how i die a slow death.
Each time , every time.
