Dark Infatuation

By LadyLeBlanc

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

She's flirting with Death, and cheating on Life. She walks on the edge, plays catch with a knife. Infatuation turned obsession, her blood flows hot and red. Seduced by chilling darkness, she puts a noose above her head. Life tries to win her back, but Death has caught her heart. She takes his hand, jumps off the cliff, and now her marriage starts.Ok, I wrote this as a companion poem for a story that a friend of mine wrote. I'm not a dark and scary person obsessed w/ death and dying. ;} so here ya go Angela, I hope you can use the poem! Written December 24th, 2001 © on Jan 01 2002 11:16 AM PST, Kaleigh Naylor   0 • 10
