Insolent movements fill the eye, her innocent white dress flaring in invitation

Moving with the irresistible beat of the music, a siren's song murmured without sound.

Poignant green eyes call out with a demure smile that belies the knowing twirl.

Every step. every sway of the silken white dress beckons you closer, until at last,

Desperation overtakes, and your arms lock around the fleeting allure of youth and fragility.

I shudder violently in the arms of my own lovers: one called betrayal, and the other vengeance.

Merriment and desire overtake your eyes as you pull her swiveling hips closer, passion eroding

Everything you ever thought you wanted, promises unraveling with the sweetness of silk.

Nothing but death is meant to part us, lovers united through time and blood and sacrifice.

True love admits no impediment, and her face becomes a memory too soon, ashes upon wind.
