Prompt: “Write a poem about someone or something you have a lust for”
First, it was lust,
In the dust of the past.
All it took was a glance,
and there in my dreams, you danced.
Forbidden feelings,
you got me reeling.
How could I say no?
I stooped too low.
Overlooked everything,
it was your body I was worshipping.
Forgot to see behind the mask,
I drank from your poisoned flask.
“Forgot to see behind the mask,
I drank from your poisoned flask.”
Yesssss – you have a way with imagery.
Thank you <3
Beautiful! I love it! I’m afraid I was too shy to fully address the prompt. You nailed it with grace.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it 🙂
