Blue Eyed Beast...

Leave me, you Blue Eyed Beast, you tempt me so.

You spoke to me of naught but deceit
and robbed my mind of the last vestiges
of personal sanity, leaving me,
alone teet'ring on your knife's razor edge.
Your soft words, words of endearment of love
were as I suspected, all just a trap.

And as a cat is caught in the jaws of
curiosity, I was lost as well.
But, so unlike the cat with claws and jaws
for her own defense, I was made pow'rless
as your suant, terrible, tempting,
tremors held me close whisp'ring words so soft,
so dear, to numb me from my aching pride.

But, Blue Eyed Beast, can comfort me no more.

So get thee away thou retched monster,
For your words are now meaningless drabble
and my curiosity, blase, fore-
You tempt me. No More.
