Lust

A poem

Lust is a fallen angel.
That whispers in the ear
“Take him”
“Make him yours”
Gilded hands covering up eyes
When uncovered you see differently
Love is absent in the heat of the moment
Lust leads to wild fires
Love is a chemical reaction found in sparks
Love is a slow burning candle
“Trample the embers with your feet”
The Angel whispers
Lust is love in disguise
Eyes of a predator
Seeking its prey
Lust is holding the vision
Eyes on the prize
Nothing getting in your way
Not even people
Lust is wanting the body without knowing the soul
Lust is the beast that wants control
Not all angels are made equal
The fallen love nothing more
Than confusing you to think lust is love
“I would do anything for you”
Is the song they sing.
