Savoring the Lioness

Distracted by her wandering gaze 

A beacon amongst a thousand fading stars 

Her song a new familiar voice 

In this world that kept her breathing. 

One sudden unforeseen thought 

Erupting in the back of her mind 

Where never before had such visions spawned 

Inviting as they were terrifying. 

Dreaming allowed her greatest fear 

Standing face to face with the lioness itself, 

Ready to feed on her every desire. 

Oh how its sweet poison beckoned, 

Awakening her every sense 

As she eagerly craved for merely a taste 

For from its crimson lips 

Dripped that which made her knees tremble. 

Weakened by her beating heart 

Faster now in the awkward stillness 

As shadows gathered 

To catch a glimpse of the forbidden. 

Her innocent curiosity 

Rapidly turning her into a savage beast 

For no longer could she withstand the temptation 

Slowly breathing down her neck.-
