Disclaimer: The angst and the words belong to me… just not the characters. =( grumbles
[AN: Hello! waves this freeverse poem's something I wrote during class, (better to dream about Rogue/Gambit than risk getting caught sleeping, no? =P) and I think that it's one of my more angsty pieces. Hey, can you blame a melancholic? winks This thing makes it difficult for me to be able to place a particular time of its occurrence, so I'll just guess that it would be after one of their more serious meetings and a real kiss that wasn't brought upon by mind-control, if you know what I mean. I thought it was about time that I pimped one of my poems here, just to see how much they suck, as usual. Well, make my day and tell me what you think? =)]
Devil
Standing there, a huge grin on your face;
Invisible tail swaying
I know you're watching, possibly laughing…
Waiting for the right moment.
Fiery eyes, burning bright
Cast in the shadows of the night
Those same ones stun me, boring into my soul…
Smirking.
Everywhere I go, I sense
That something is not right
You reach out, grasping my untouchable hand…
I am mesmerized.
I then try to resist
The hunger and passion of your kiss
Its urgency and need, the taste…
I have lost the battle.
Instantly astonished, I attempt to pull back
I can't, feeling the emotions of your heartfelt attack
I'm falling to my knees…
Succumbing to your disease.
You're that demon in disguise
You'll charge me up with your lies
Like a useless card you'll throw me…
Away.
