Lies doth drip off your honey-suckle lips,

Your beauty has sunk your fair share of ships.

Magnetic eyes enticing my soul,

Always getting out of bother using a legal loophole.

Your swaying body dancing with the wind,

For you I have indeed sinned.

Beautiful temptress of the south,

Why can’t I believe anything from your sultry mouth?

I know I class you as my muse,

However my heart will not take another bruise.

Please disperse from rose-tinted sight,

For my head tells me to do right.

"...your swaying body dancing in the wind..."

I read your poem and by the time I reached this line, I was already swaying to the rythm of your writting.  I enjoyed this.

I really enjoyed this piece..
Lovely, melancholy, yet very lyrical.

Ah, yes.  And my head has told me to do right, too!  Sometimes it seems like a loss!  But then again, I suppose not!  This is a great one to think about... Much enjoyed!
