Your outlook favored the good in life
Ignorance, your only crime
But that darkness always followed
To strike you at the perfect time
She called for you to join her
She looked into your eyes and smiled
Your eager body outpaced your mind
A tender heart so easily beguiled
Then she asked you for your soul
To display in arrogance and never cherish
Finally enlightened you walked away
And brought her lie that would make you perish
And soon her venom filled your veins
A verbal bite that scarred your face
All the judging fingers pointed
To the invisible ink that wrote disgrace
She told a lie that sealed your fate
An angel weeping by your side
Your body lays in poisoned slumber
And she just laughed and sipped her wine
The end delivered through metal fangs
Final words you couldn't say
For eyes of malice looked upon you
As the gleam in yours did fade away.

Interesting outlook on heartbreak.
Not exactly what I was going for, but thank you!
