Have you been one of The Seduced

 

Press play before reading. Salute



(A lone voice whispers)


Does the lonely soul with broken wings


Still cry as they wallow 

Grieve and sing


Does the heartbroken walk 

Head down 

With an invisible frown


Looking at sharp pavements 

Littered in broken glass emotions 


Where they are cursed 

To wear their hearts on their sleeves 


For when lust for a new love life has you in its grip


That unquenchable temptation to be violated 


Or to enter new flesh 


To penetrate deeper mentally into unknown wet territories


To really sate your soul for fifteen minutes or so


As you clash climatically 

Clinging to the thought 

This new form of love will last forever


Whilst bound tightly together with pheromone's emitting 

Soft aromas of immeasurable pleasure 


Which smell of shiny black leather


Will thoughts of eventually being one those lonely souls that grieves  


The pavement kings and queens

When they eventually leave


Just be another conspiracy theory 


That you were played to get laid

That many will never believe?
