Beauty

Beauty becomes a weapon

As she wraps her lies around

Seductive ploys with heart she toys

As beguiled deceit impounds

Poison lips plush passion

Arms caress but thoughts are cold

Decadent sight, stains the night

As her tormented depths unfold

False ease in fondness whispered

She skilfully steals your soul

Piece by piece dismembered

Truths subtracted in her goal

Once she's tasted favour

You'll never flee her lair

With twisted minds

Desire entwines

Disguised by loves ensnare

A face never forgotten

Beneath, what lies within?

Deceit, entrapment, avarice

A want for bitter sin

Driven by objective

She'll never be alone

The body of an angel

With heart of solid stone

Using her appeals

To tangle and entice

She preys on better nature

Compassion set in ice

Weaving torment

To snatch empathy

And doubt to

Veil her lie

With every human kindness lost

Her gains will multiply

In this world all is obtainable

But what betides her final breath

What becomes of heartless beauty?

Will she walk alone in death
