and still she follows me
even through we're out in the open
she's hovering above me
and can't shake her in the rush hours
nor rinse her
she's there steamed up in the vapors of my showers
watching
without the need to blink or lick her lips
mimicing familiar voices
tainting somewhat simple choices
and creating illiusions that my faith is a lie
makes me wonder why the bad is so easy to try
she's a demon in brunette disguise
with handfulls of sweet red apples
that digest the soul
you are so great. i love your writing style and this is such a deep subject matter. we all face feelings of "not doing something right morally." we have a little guilt or we condemn ourselves. i think you really capture the essence of this feeling and you did it with such vivid verbal imagry.
definitely a nice write, loving the concept...this write can definitely be interpreted in many ways "mimicking familiar voices", dont you just hate that-its a very good thing that you can decipher...definitely loved it
not going to lie, the beginning struck me one way, but as i continued i saw the switch in thought. like a monkey on the back. like eyes peering into the back of the head. the influence that should not influence. that second guess of such, "makes me wonder why the bad is so easy to try" very deep, makes you hold on to what beliefs are held to further fight a powerful demon with sweets that end sour. good stuff.
