She's more lethal than she seems. An intoxicating beauty that entrances her seducers with the sweetest soprano's note, so sweet like honey. Honey that traps its prey. Though she's no angel she wishes for love a love too far away too far from reach . . . ~My poetry starts off angelic and sweet, but then turns bitter and dark.~ Side note: the darker poems are better 🖤 __________________________ {Highest Rankings: } #76 in poems 2018-12-7 #5 in sirens 2018-31-7 #33 in sea 2018-3-9 #1 in thesiren 2020-15-11 #1 in oceans 2021-21-5 #17 in sadpoems 2021-21-5 #39 in poetry 2021-21-5 Author: @Midnight_Phantom18 ©copyright 2020 Cover art by: @cool_reader_ ____________________________ What readers are saying: @taya_0 - im literally getting butterflies, your writing is that amazing !!! @August_Parker - I'm having difficulty in choosing which one is my favourite in this book CAUSE ALL THE POEMS ARE AWESOME @Szanuka - I have read it all so fast with such feelings...

They are based on a theme and you follow it perfectly. The use of literary devices in your poems never fails to astound me. Those metaphors, those repetitions, those whispers. I feel like your poems whisper and giggle in my ear, which is amazing because it is not very often that I like a poem.

"I don't trust you." Amelia said in all honesty. "Smart girl." Brady said. Amelia took a step closer. "But," Brady stopped what he was busy with and watched with curious eyes as Amelia stood a few feet away from him with her wide blue eyes solely on him. "But no matter how much I want to, I can't stay away." Brady dropped the wrench that was in his hand and after wiping the slight amount of grease off his forehead he stepped closer to her. "I take back what I said." He said tilting his head to the side. "You have to be the stupidest girl I know." Amelia took in a breath. "That's what my brain keeps on telling me too." "Then listen to your brain." Brady said menacingly. "Because I doubt daddy would want his precious angel to be playing with broken toys." "I don't care." Amelia stated confidently. Brady caught her off guard and grabbed her waist, yanking her closer to him. "If you intend on keeping your heart in one piece, I suggest you start to care." Amelia gulped. "Well, I'm all about taking risks and this is a risk I'm willing to take Brady." Brady Ryland and Amelia Stanton are worlds apart, he's a damned bad boy with a troubled childhood and she's a spoilt girl with the world at her feet. Until one day when they meet under unusual circumstances and perspectives and plans start to change but mostly they start to change each other. Among demons of the past, deceit, betrayal, love and family, lays the bittersweet tale of close to perfect Amelia and flawed Brady.
