Emotional Vampire Suave is his middle name, Allure, his velvet cloak. Whispers to the core of me is what he quietly spoke. Subtle teeth disguised by kisses, fell upon thirsty lips of unfulfillment and then drinks instead of sips. Arms are not long enough to push firmly away, the siren of purple prose and the connection he'll betray. His voice liquidity caresses while his hunger takes away the delicate morsels of once-guarded heartaches. Slowly he chews, painstakingly he feasts, hardly a notice takes the victim of his beasts. One day she'll awaken from the hope-numbed state of bliss to abandonment and empty arms, shuddering, he'll devastate with a kiss. Guard let down sweet allure, brittle, brown, new blood sought in the abundant field abound. Passion and pain; fear and trust; Laughter, even love in turn each thrust, Into his awaiting coiffeur lain with linen, upon table offered, spread for the impassioned glutton. Morsels of hope dipped in the gravy of sense. Coated with succulent spice of feeling precious, intense. When his satisfied meal is through the plate holds no more allures, the emotional vampire moves on to the next feast, will it be yours? You'll hear his soft sweet murmurs you'll hunger for his touch. Guard your heart I warn you nothing survives his lust. |

Marsha,
Wheewww. What a ride! Glad I'm a guy. I tend to read looking for lines, phrases or stanzas that grab me: in this one, "Allure, his velvet cloak."
