Execrated Lips

by Gem   Nov 20, 2006


I feel myself falling
Deep under your spell
I can't make a sound
Not a whimper or yell

You stretch out a hand
Almost in slow motion
Your face doesn't change
It's void of emotion

Your execrated lips
Painted blood red
Give way in a smile
And fill me with dread

You step forward closer
One step at a time
I can't look away
As you slowly sublime

You come nearer still
I'm unable to stir
I know what you want
You want me to defer

I wrench my eyes shut
And let out a scream
Knowing deep down
You must be a dream

I peek through my lashes
Your nowhere around
But I know you'll be back
I'm the victim you hound ©

(This was for a contest where I was given a title and had to write a poem based on it. I did my best)
