Lust

"Watch out for Lust. One second, he gets next to you at a bar, and the next, he’s stealing your consciousness little by little.

First, you'll catch his eye. He’ll rate, out of ten, how putty you’ll be in his paws after he ravages you…r mind. Then he’ll approach you, smirking gently, and offer you a drink. After you accept, he’ll get close. Maybe too close for comfort, but you don’t notice. Yet. Then he laughs, you laugh. You whisper sweet nothings into each other’s ears as if you’ve known for decades.

Second, he invites you into his hotel room. Promises to show you what you’ve been waiting for. A grandiose performance. The kind you never forget. You’re excited at this point, aren’t ya? But you get a chill down your neck. A bad one. The kind inspired from your gut… That says you’re in trouble.

Third, he notices your worried face, then shuts down your concerns. Questions that pester your head, he’ll roast them by expressing how 100% safe he is to be around. Nothing to worry about... Right?

Fourth, you’ll jump on his bed. He’ll face you, his lips near yours, and as you kiss… You faint.

Luckily, someone came to the rescue. You end up in the hospital and damn that Imperial for not coming. And how could you expect him to? After your savior revealed the lie behind the veil, you could not possibly wish for him to see the light of day anymore. Like mosquitoes to blood, that incubus was about to suck the life outta ya… And to me, he did. Almost all of it.

So don’t be as naïve - stupid - as I’ve been. Don't think he'll sweep you off your feet because the only thing he’ll sweep is your life source for dinner. If it weren’t for Sunrise, my mind would’ve completely shut down. But... He still made me weak. He made me so brittle... He made me forget what real suffering felt like before him." - Written by SynaWyi (me)
