The Poets Covenant

The fairest of all God's creatures
you proved to be the most wicked.

Behind that pleasant smile and those soft pink lips
hid a dark heart and nefarious intentions.

With cunning deception and Machiavellian poise
you cast a spell over many and danced into hearts.

A spin-doctor, a modern day Aphrodite
wreaking havoc with your rusty dagger.

With harsh blows you destroyed --
with sharp words...you shattered.

You were the fall of all mankind,
begging me to partake in the fruit.

Blindly I followed and walked into death's scope
thinking for you I had found hope.

You lead many to deaths and broken hearts..
and Yet -- I still find myself thinking:

I love you...
