Love is an angel
an angel that pursues me
she often likes to dangle
her bait in front of me

She digs in her claws
they pierce like needles
and cut like saws
she injects her venom

She entangles me
with false promises
she mangles me
with deceitful intent

She blinds me with her beauty
and makes the world unreal
her words falsely comfort me
these wounds will not heal

Love is an angel
an angel with blackened wings
though she is of evil
pleasure she always brings

I hear her enthralling voice
and answer to it's call
I'm pulled without a choice
though I know that I will fall

What would you do
if you were me
flee from love
or run to calamity

Whatever you choose
be careful and precise
for whatever the choice
you will pay the price

"She entangles me

I really enjoyed the imagery you used to describe love. Love is not always kind.
anyways it was a beautiful write Tony.
