"Sweet Deception..."

I always wanted to know if she was real.

That blurry image in my head.

I needed to know if it was possible to know someone...

Really taste their true colors

A fair quest, I guess.

And then we met

She was different

Darkness in a beautiful shell

A charming shapeshifter

Luring you into her arena

Where the game is hers

And winning is impossible

Yet I was a gracious loser

And pain was my prize

The victory was in knowing her

In her smile

The fragrant poison of her

Loss was pleasure

And the reality

Was my love.
