Bathed in Silver starlight…
Walking on moonlit sands…
This beautiful, stunning Goddess…
Carries something in her hands…
It glows softly in the dark…
What it is, she’s not sure…
But it lights her darkened pathway…
Makes her feel so alive, so secure…
It protects her haunted soul…
Eases all her hurt…
And all the painful memories…
She’s trying hard to avert…
The feelings of desolation…
Those feelings of loneliness…
All that overwhelmed her…
Since she got into this mess…
The girl who had it all…
Turned out to be an illusion…
Everything she thought was real…
Was all fantasy and delusion…
And cruelly ripped away…
Leaving her so alone…
In a dark and desolate place…
She used to call her home…
But ever since she acquired it…
She’s found a way to smile…
A chance for a new beginning…
And make her life worthwhile…
Yet it’s all witchcraft and sorcery…
It’s the Devil’s own handy work…
And its spell has consumed her…
Causing her mouth to smirk…
Because she holds it in her hands…
But keeps it close each day…
And tells not a single soul…
So they can never take it away…
For this is her only salvation…
The only way she now exists…
By casting spells of revenge…
And destroying them with her kiss…

Very poignant. You rhyme quite well. I tend to sound childish when I try to rhyme but you have the gift.
Oh, I’m not sure about that 😉 – I feel sometimes my stuff is very childish – I have tried other poetry methods, but this seems to be the way things work the best – thanks for taking time to comment – Cheers J
