Guilt Exposed Bare

There is one who's attraction I can't resist,
No matter how much I persist,
Her words are sweeter than wine,
She will push aside everything that is thine.


Her skill lies in deception,
She is best at nothing but manipulation,
She sways me with her promises and lies,
And in the process,leaves the good things in mounting piles.


She has the most beautiful face,
Her smell,her scent,none in our race,
All that she desires,she possesses,
She robs a part of those she touches.


She makes you do that you would not,
But she coaxes like a feathery cot,
And after all is said and done,
She makes you feel like you've touched the Sun.


Then the harsh realization dawns,
That she used you like all her pawns,
And now has thrown you into the sea,
With heavy rocks tied to your knee.


She loves to see you drown,
She will smile,but never frown,
As her seawater enters your body,
As you writhe in agony.


For every single time she has made you plunder,
Stronger will you be pulled under,
Into a deep and gaping hole,
So dark that it will scar your soul.


If you see a ray of light,
If you triumph in the fight,
She will tempt you once again,
And if you fall in,Oh What A Shame!


This is what guilt does to you,to all of us,to me.
