Kissing Demise


This is one of my shortest poems. I figured since Halloween is coming up in a few days I might as well be festive. It basically references a particular monster. You should be able to figure out which kind by the end ;] hehe. But it is also a metaphor for a real life situation/relationship. 


“Kissing Demise”

In looming darkness she seeks
Unknowingly pursued by shadow’s hunger
Plunged into condemned embrace when he speaks

And she’s mesmerized
As he traps her with dark eyes

A clever predator, He invokes devotion
For she’ll not catch herself
In the time before he makes the final motion

A finale of a lifetime;
An insignificance of a cursed existence


Happy Halloween!
