The Wilted Dahlia

I build you up in my mind,
Ignoring the signs I refuse to find.
My gut screams truth, but my eyes stay blind—
Now disappointment is the only friend I confide.

I paint my world in colours so bright,
But you bring your cynicism to dim the light.
My heart bleeds from a thousand tiny cuts,
And I play Slave Leia, bound to your Jabba the Hutt.

You shatter my dreams with every word you weave,
In your eyes, I seek love but find only deceit.

All I sense is a void, a flicker of shame,
And I’m left in the shadows, playing your game.

I wish to bloom like a Dahlia,
But in your life, I am the Gallia.

I will leave you to your own devices
And build me a life beyond the vices.
Because I’m tired of you rolling the dice—
I’ll spread my wings and soar, breaking the ties.

The Spotted Cucumber

One fine day, tired of "always my way," I reached for comfort, or maybe just a craving. Picked up a spotted cucumber— Seemed harmless enough, so why not? But the moment I touched it, it pricked. Unwanted timber in my hands, Yet I let it be—what else could I do? Hunger led me to peel its layers, Only to find the filth it hid underneath. Worms writhing where freshness should be, Rot, disguised as something nourishing. I thought it was doing me a favor, But all it did was make me sick. Never knew comfort could leave such a taste— Bitter enough to spill my guts out. Next time, I’d rather reach for something rich, Something warm, indulgent, and worth my time. A smooth, chocolaty éclair— Rather than ever go for such a comfortable, unhealthy affair.

Us Two

As the hands struck two… Can you feel my hands on you? The power of the universe with just us two I am so into you. Who’s counting the minutes? Only we know what we brew. Even if the world fades to dark, We shine brighter in our spark. Your lips brush my nape, Undoing the shyness of my drapes. As your fingertips trace me, I melt like that slice of brie.

Temptress

I wanna be your temptress, Get you down on my mattress. You be the king, I'll be your empress. I already have a clear purpose, You can trace every curve and surface. I've got one mission for you— Are you built for the secret service? Let me take a bite of that apple, Can you make me pray without taking me to the chapel? They call me a wolf, but I will bear your saddle, Make me howl like the moon's lone disciple. Either play this like a boring game of Scrabble, Or get your armor on and be ready for a passionate battle.
