Speckled with the blood of lies,
Blindly consumed by your feigned sincerity.
You said you loved me,
Sealing it with a tender kiss,
Only to pierce my lip with your fangs.
The trickle,
Wet and metallic,
Oxidizing on my tongue
Nauseates me to the core.
Sickening,
Sweet,
Irony,
Descriptively you.
Pledging passion and fidelity
Then pillaging my love,
Disemboweling my trust,
Leaving a heartbroken corpse.

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Your blanket of lies
Pulled tightly around my head
Suffocating trust
Killing, what I thought we shared
Sun, moon and the air we breathe
~~ D. R, DiFrancesco ~~
I gave you everything,
Heart,
Soul,
All that you asked,
You played coy,
Feeding my appetite for love,
With promises and feigned passion,
Luring me into your web,
Wrapping me in a silky cocoon,
Warm and safe,
Nestled in you arms,
A deceitful security,
If only I had not been so blind,
I would have recognized your fangs,
Impaling me to numbness,
Helpless and oblivious,
Under your anesthetic poison,
I waited trembling,
For you to squander all that I am,
Weakened by the deluge,
Blood and spirit abate,
Eyes flutter and roll,
Your beauty,
First limpid, fades to black,
The nothingness that is your soul,
Emptied,
You discarded my hollowed husk,
Leaving me to crumble,
And scatter to the four winds.
