The Audacity

Like the serpent that you are, you ever so smoothly slid into my world, charmed me at my weakest. Or did you in fact love and care for me then?... When did the venom start to take over and you could no longer control its persistent urge to poison every part of me? To consume me; you take over just enough of me so as not to overtake completely, leaving me exposed, alone, with only shallow breaths remaining...

A constrictor perhaps?... with the grip you’ve got, there’s no way you aren’t ...

Yet, the charm of a Cobra radiates from you, people are uncontrollably drawn into your seductive aura...

You do well to keep hidden, lurking low, out of sight out of mind... always waiting for the perfect time to strike...

Or retreat, and patiently wait, watching from a distance. Watching you do; as you coil up, you see EVERYTHING. Every so often one thinks it may have heard a hiss or slither sound, can’t ever be sure... the games keep you alive.

In your sick world you have told yourself for so long that this is the way you should be living , this is how it’s done, the food chain is your guide to survival, bad part is, nothing is spared when you’re hungry.

And you are always hungry...

Nothing stands a chance at making it out alive. So congratulations, if that is in fact your purpose and goal in the game you call life, you have won.

However; A vain attempt to win on your part! To put it simply, you could never best me; I gave it to you. YOU LOST ME.

I grew wings when I decided you were no longer “Dragon” me down with you.
