Lair

Tempting taste buds

Lips full of flavour

Men wait in line

For her to be their saviour

Watching waiting

Will opportunity knock

Gathering together

In they flock

Eyes widen

Heated bodies

Smoke fills the air

Hearts pound

They are in her lair

Mirrors gather

Instant glares

Shoes tap

Sheltered stairs

Shifting eyes

Caught up

In the moment

Mesmerised

Music fills

The room

Her beauty

Sucking them in

Like a vacuum

Smiling knowing

She is the light

Filling the lair

She is the devil

They are saying

Prayers 

Rise

Shadows come

Pass by me

Lift the dark

Please don’t bark

Asking the impossible

Expect me to ask

Too much of you

Stuck to me like glue

Shadows wrapped

Around innocent shoulders

Pressing the world

Heavy like boulders

Painting a pathway

Of greed

Never helping me

In my time of need

Pressed again

Pinning me to the ground

Hunted like

The hungry hound

Dreamer

Broken wilted flower

Dancing in the breeze

Seeds spread

Vines strangle in time

Struggle in time

Broken brown

Digging the ground

Lifeless

No sound

Pushed to the limit

Beaten battered torn

Lifeless

Isolated alone

Teardrop water

Salvage what’s left

Movement

Empty breath
