That bewitching face
Accompanied with a coquettish grin,
And lustful eyes which hide her sins.
These features distract my senses.
So, when I decide to fall in love,
I go all the way.
Not a hint of hesitation in my voice or movement.
How could I have known?
She was beautiful.
I had high hopes.
It never crossed my mind that she had a heart so vile.
She had a gift, though.
She knows how to entice those like I.
And once she did,
She ruined their lives.
