A poem about a man and a succubus.

Why is it that you tease me so?
Is it because it pleases you so?
With your beauty you taunt
And your beauty, it haunts
I rue the dark day I first encountered you

My eyes are stuck on you, scared to tear them away
The conscience in my mind starts to fray
With a look you can kill
With a touch you can thrill
With a kiss you can bring me to my knees

Satanic poison is contained in your kiss,
An impending death hidden in sexual bliss
The craving I feel when against your skin,
The ecstasy I want when your teeth sink in

It’s the feeling I can’t stand, the feeling of lust
You lick you fangs, cruel succubus
As I get caught in your evocative gaze.

What I give, it doesn’t suffice
Ensnared by beauty, caught in its vice
My lips tremble as I’m slowly dying inside

So why is it that you tease me so?
Is it because its killing me so?

It must be; as you stroke me with a lustful hand
This torment you bring, I just cant stand

As I look into your eyes, I try to stay strong
But now my fate is sealed and it wont be long

I know you don’t love me, you merely tease me
Numb from reality, you take my life from me

Ruby red lips form my name

I drop to the floor, the heart within me stale

The Succubus forever takes delight in her game

Very good...great structuring too with the verses getting progressively shorter, sort of like the life ebbing away...what a clever cookie you are!

I can't believe I caught this. I can't read the next part of dark light now. I have to go out. I just checked new additions and yours was the first one. I love this poem you know I do. It's so well written Well done. Talk to you soon.

:-) Musty Zein replies: "So I've updated have I? About time I guess XD Thanks for the comment."

Wow this is so evil feeling, like a dark underlay, ive been reading vanpire and horror stories lately and this really goes into that catagory. I love it!

:-) Musty Zein replies: "Thanks, I was aiming at creating something a bit sinister. Glad you like it.Oh, and if you like horror be sure to check out some H.P. Lovecraft "

I love how you changed the rhythm after the first two verses, now a' days you only see those who stick strictly to a rhythm outline. It's not what makes the poem, uniqness does, and this poem shows alot.

*applauds and leaves a basket of assorted candies*

:-) Musty Zein replies: "Thanks, I think it would've been a dull poem if I used the same scheme as the first two verses. I agree with you, Id like to see a few more poets who are willing to be innovative and really abuse 'poetic licence'. Anyways, thanks for the comment...and the munchies! *shoves as much candy down his gullet as possible and, inevitably, chokes*"
