Lust

Gentle as a shadow's breath
Foolish as a wish
Bitter, dark and heavy...still
Shattered deadly bliss.
Romeo and Juliet
Pathetic one night stand
Festered from a pilgrim's kiss,
Ended in Death's hands.
Can't escape the swiftning pulses
Worst of seven sins
Let the passion grip your mind,
It takes root within.
Stupored by what met the eye
It grabbed them by their loins.
Lusting what they couldn't have,
Under cover of night, they joined.
Their screams, gasps and muffeled sighs
Now mere unheard, translucent cries
Disfigured by what met the eye
Into young and poison bliss.
