The Charmer's Kiss
The Charmer's kiss is deadly sweet to taste,
Her touch as soft as satin rose petals.
Her manner sweet, her perfect body chaste,
But woe to the man whom her charms settle.
Beneath this glamour of perfection lies
a life-draining poison to rival all.
Once indugled, to her from you doth life fly,
To immortalize her, to you, let fall.
Thus is the curse of the Charmer's sweet kiss,
Thus is the curse of her immortal life.
With gentle touches she masks pain with bliss,
With one simple gesture comes so much strife.
To tempt the Charmer's caress is to sleep
Eternal; never wake from slumber deep.
