Unfulfilling love.
A lingering feeling so strong
its power engulfed my body.

Sensations coursing blood through and from my body
Baiting us to fall ill to our temptations and temptors.

All I see is a deep blue
imitating the flame of desire prancing around my room.

On my bed, there is nothing but that color I see.
It’s deep yet it fadesβ€”
Both the color and the feeling.
The feeling of a serpent gone & nearby.
- This poem describes what it feels like when you are falling for guilty pleasures/ temptation.
I use Biblical imagery like a serpent to represent the impulsiveness.
