Revered or Feared

As she lay her head for rest
Her mind plays the repressed.
Where there lies a vivid memory, one which she can not untie
For its the heat of his touch, that still lingers and resides
It kindles off into sparks, that once swept her off the ground
But progresses to a blazing fire, that had burned her right back down.
Now she sits in her ashes.
While his face appears in flashes.
Recalling lips that kissed so sweet
Feeling complete with each heartbeat.
He fed her words so sweet of sugar
Their taste like honey on his tongue
And like a child, to the sugar she had tightly clung.
She remains bewildered how she didn't see the hints,
Until he stamped her skin with his fingerprints,
How she missed the holes in his teeth from all the lies,
But after all snow whites' poison was dressed as an apple in disguise.
