Lovely Demise

Sweet beguiles,
And gentle tempest,
Her name be mischief!
With her wicked wiles,
She ensnares the many hearts of men.
Leading them down a rose petal covered,
Road of pain and wounds that fester.
To a hidden cave,
One that lies about its splendor.
Like flies to a sweet smelling plant,
Fish to a mesmerizing light,
Sailors to the beckoning siren call,
Mens hearts are devoured.
