Deceiving Cruelty

You're known among all for your beauty
So destructive with deceiving cruelty
Like Apollo, unwilling to be outdone
Aggressive with a flattering tongue
Your lips bandage hearts, while seducing the wise
A creative poet with all your lies
You're the paint in my mural, unearth artifacts in my heart
the memory of you shatters me like a piece of mosaic art
The tiles jagged edges, piercing every part of me
Like cupid's arrow that brought Apollo to his knees
You are a silent Ares, with whom I must contend
My only bloodshed, comes from within
A war brought to my spirit, to shatter my soul
No need for violence when you have control
cause
you're the paint in my mural, unearth artifacts in my heart
the memory of you shatters me like a piece of mosaic art
The tiles jagged edges, piercing every part of me
Like cupid's arrow that brought Apollo to his knees
You never tire of your endless pursuits
Eyes narrow on the most delectable fruit
An Aphrodisiac, the embodiment
Your touch makes me forget
cause
You're the paint in my mural, unearth artifacts in my heart
the memory of you shatters me like a piece of mosaic art
The tiles jagged edges, piercing every part of me
Like cupid's arrow that brought Apollo to his knees
