My motive, stolen,
Dangles from her cunning fingertips.
Her eye winks cold blue,
Her smile, flawless and cruel,
As she robs me of my future.
Her laughter takes my breath away,
Her taunts rape my dreams,
Even my tears freeze and become hers.
In the lonely dark,
She leaves me curled,
At the base of dead trees.
And I am forever wishing,
For another glimpse of Summer sky.
