HER

By Daryl Bracken

Her words spoke of love
Her actions spoke of loneliness
Her body spoke of desire
Her touch spoke of lust
Her Eyes reviled the lies

Her love a game
Her loneliness was true
Her desire was revenge
Her lust was for suffering
Her lies reviled the pain

Her game to spark your feelings
Her true Loneliness the bait
Her revenge to fuel the fire
Her suffering a link to life
Her pain was hers alone

Her Feelings are not of Love
Her Bait eats at her Heart
Her fire consumes her soul
Her life is much like Death
Her being alone is her own doing

    the way this was formed/styled, as ALWY stated, was extremely clever... each stanza taking on more weight, gaining feel with a final line hammer blow.... nicely done
