Butterfly Kisses

Kissed by a god, but drained by malice were you.

What glory have your eyes beheld

having admired afar

the very descending petals from heaven

a beauteous blend of

black

blue

and every color

beyond what

your feeble

senses could comprehend!

What specialty in my eyes

thine did wish to accomplish

and deceived were you

having thought to

have achieved

recognition

convinced by

the fact

I chose

you

amongst

a

whole

meadow

Dazzled she was

before my elegant wings

as razor-sharp and deceiving

as the mind they followed

glancing upon her petals

with lust

thirst

for the scrumptious

essentials stored

in her roots

With a gracious smile

my throat was accepted

by the blossomed wretch

before my evil antennae

and praised was I

as nutrients were

drained from

beneath her foundation

causing a faint wilt

that grew stronger,

or rather weaker

with every second

she was abused

Still content was she

while I cackled

at her grinning corpse

ascending back into

the heavens

as she believed

she was kissed

by an angel

Author's Note

Not as dark as I planned, and not as satisfying to me at least. Hope you enjoy.

And here I thought this was going to be a lovely write...dark & sinister instead, the ending is a killer.

'she believed she was kissed by an angel'....happens!

Stop messing with butterflies will ya? ;-) Outstanding read Tai.

Thank you, aha. So sorry I haven't been around your poetry lately, life's been busy.

"as the mind followed by they" *by they - it really tripped me up...

I'd also capitalize the first word of the last stanza for the sake of continuity. But other than those two things, this was pretty flawless.

"and praised was I
as nutrients were
drained from
beneath her foundation
causing a faint wilt
that grew stronger,
or rather weaker
with every second
she was abused" - Wonderful.
