Venom floods my system,
Floating high enough to fall
With a bitter aftertaste
On my seductive red lips,
Lips that move
In a punishing rhythm

Your false words fall
Like dead rocks
on this fortress of disbelief,
Disbelief at your pitiful attempts
at gaining my affection
Disbelief at your hurtful words
That only seeked to cut me deep

You say I am an enchantress
Tugging at your heart strings
A siren's song playing on repeat
Carrying you to dangerous waters
Then why am I here
Cuccooned in melancholy
Far away from Joy's golden shores
