She floats like a butterfly…
But stings like a wasp…
That girls a fucking nightmare…
Avoid her at all costs…
So beautiful and delicate…
But do not be deceived…
Don’t let your eyes betray you…
Her lies must not be believed…
She has a way about her…
That simply draws you in…
Captivates your heart…
And that’s where it begins…
The journey of your lifetime…
Strap in and hold on tight…
As she’ll pierce your very soul…
And keep you awake at night…
She has no guilty conscience…
Or a sense of right or wrong…
She walks on the wild side…
Entices you to come along…
One minute she’s in tears…
So gentle and so soft …
The next she’s a conqueror…
Holding your heart aloft…
She’ll set fire to your soul…
And burn you to the ground…
Bury you so very deep…
You’ll never ever be found…
She was an insane infatuation…
Every schoolboy’s fantasy…
But reality was different …
And it was never meant to be…
You meant nothing to her…
But she told you this was real…
You fell hook, line and sinker…
As you negotiated a deal…
A deal with dark forces…
The kind you don’t understand…
You were out of your depth…
And she never lent a hand…
She just stood there laughing…
As your whole life fell apart…
Swiftly moved to someone else…
That’s where their journey starts…
But you have got to pick up…
The splinters of your shattered life…
Was it worth all this heartache…
Was she really worth all this strife…
She floats like a butterfly…
But stings like a wasp…
Now she haunts your nightmares…
She’s the glitter in the frost…
But you have learnt the lesson…
Never again will you be deceived…
Don’t let your eyes betray you…
This girl’s a fucking soul thief…

Very powerful poem! Loving it! 🙂
Thank you – I enjoyed writing this one – like therapy! Cheers J
Really enjoyed this.. I’m pretty sure I dated this girl serially for some time…
Really, I may need to trace your whereabouts in 1992 – you may have been the cause of her actions !! Thanks for your kind words – Cheers J
Wow – just….wow.
I take that as positive, but never do assume! Thank you for stopping by! Cheers J
Yes! Totally positive!! 🙂
Thank you 🙂 – I hope you find other words I have written of interest -Cheers J
Wow! Isnt she something, huh?! “Stings like a wasp” – she is harsh!!!!!! Thats an incredible poem. I hope such girl doesnt exist in your life though.
Oh, she was incredible – at the time, I was head over heels – but she played me in ways that left scars – 1992 was a long time ago, but sometimes feels like yesterday ! Look forward to hearing from you soon – I think I have the perfect song for us! Cheers J
