The door of my heart was left wide open

Darkness swept in

And by sheer deceit and cunning

Drove the light out.

Taking me prisoner.

"You've got only one choice Rae, only one"

I look up at the source of the voice. A shadowy figure dressed up in a midnight suit. It had crooked horns that glowed an ombre red at the tips and a face that would strike fear and repulsion in any mortal.

But I was not afraid.

"What would it be?" He lisped and ran a bifurcated tongue over dry lips.

Radio silence.

He rapped long nails on the bare table. I could tell he was getting impatient even though he maintained a calm exterior but I was lost within the labyrinth of my thoughts and could not bring myself to make a concrete decision.

***

She beckoned on me with a wide, inviting smile

And I, ugly little duckling,

Starved of love and affection, I

Bulleted towards her, propelled by the wind.

We locked lips in a cold, dead kiss.

Ah, so seductive.
