Nymph

Nymph
 
Smiling at you over her shoulder,
she leads you into the woods.
The green veil is vibrant hues,
birds singing a joyful tune.

A soft breeze went through those trees.
So did you.
Breathing the pine,
laughing, feeling fine.

A wind went in next with a secret through those trees.
So did hers.
Secrets only lovers know,
except she will deliver a fatal blow.

She pulls you down onto the soft forest floor,
smiling like a seductress,
 kissing lips so sugar-coated you could become a diabetic.

A cold front whips across your face when she leans back to retrieve a case.
Fingers caress along your jaw, holding you still in time to a thrumming pulse.

Crimson shades of inarticulateness are born,
birds abandoning their post as fast as your blood is lost to the amber-colored ground.

Trees whisper the truth
in the clearing while she walks away drenched
in your perverse unslakable
need for what you cannot obtain.

Tom Petty

When I was a teenager I had a boyfriend who's father had gotten him this album and he loved it so much he went and bought me a copy. I must have played it over a hundred times. RIP Tom, you'll be missed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Petty
