My Desire

So I saw death yesterday.
She was standing in a corner
Shyly waiting for me
To initiate the conversation
And must I say,
She looked beautiful,
Alluring and inviting
Anything that anyone could ever want.
It was in my hands
To go up and talk to her
And yet I hesitated
Like I did so many times before
Something stopped me
Perhaps it was the fear -
The fear of the unknown
Yet I have always been a sucker for mysteries.
Either way,
I left her,
Standing there
In her Crimson dress.
Now I'll just wait for the day
When one of us decides to gain some courage
And approach the other
To start a conversation,
And for some reason
I feel I'll be the first to make that move
Because I've always been a sucker for mysteries
And she's the one mystery that I will solve
Or die trying...
