Black Widow
Black Widow
She waits
In solitary dreaming
with kisses seared
in her soul's
eidetic memory
her eyes becloud
sliding closed
in the wispy fragment
of faded ecstasy
in her mind
she drinks deeply
of his loving
a laden sigh
escapes trembling lips
drifting
in the midnight air
from her open window
her mind reaches
to enfold him
in a lover's embrace
...Remembering...
his words from the zenith
of their expending passion...
"I would die for your love"
moans he
...Sharply...
her dagger enters
through his back
it's dainty tip
gently piercing his heart
lips caressing his
with her parting lover's locution
"Yes my love, and so you shall..."
