Hidden deep within
Beneath the facade
of an ordinary woman
Rises a dark desire....
Desire one could not relinquish..
Not in a form where those dear to her
Would understand..
But in a form one would never recognize
Within the struggle to suppress such urges
She fights the darkness
Writhing away from the burden
Of such unnatural desires
That takes her willingly into the night
Yet feeling overwhelmed
By the sensuality
The unknown striking fear
In her heart
Only to add to the mystique that surrounds it
Feeling the rapture of forces  
Darker than any she had imagined  
as she casually slips into the night
Submitting to the dark desires
She so willingly craves
Yearning to be apart of the passion
That secretes from the soulless faces
Haunting her wildest dreams
Only to awake to being
That ordinary woman

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Wonderful!  The dreams of night that resides in us all and the rude awakening of day.

Welcome, Ara.  This is well written, but have to admit the duality made me squirm a bit, which probably means you struck home.   Good job!

To love another person is to see the face of God.
