For every wrong step that you take <br />I pierce your heart thrice on a bender. <br />However, my fury is fake. <br />You bleed your remorse - I surrender. <br />My sharp poignant words of no shame <br />And spirits are such a bad mixture - <br />I've never been easy to tame - <br />They paint such a frightening picture, <br />They certainly prove me a b**ch - <br />It's one of my two real faces. <br />You'll find charm and poison in each, <br />Once trapped in my tender embraces.<br /><br />April Avalon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/charm-and-poison/
