The dreams she had
They’re an enigmatic species of dreams
Reserved. Sentimental. Prepossessing.
With eyes overflowing with luxurious promises
Smiles like the lulling rhythm of a waterfall
Magnetic forces so potent they tap the margin of tangibility
Deceitful. Double-edged. Charmfully lethal.
She'll regret giving in to them

"Charmfully lethal" are my favorite pair of words from this piece. I think that the last line is so powerful that it should have been given its very own stanza, but other than that, this is a lovely piece. Keep writing :)

A nice tale of those that take advantage to your kindness. It really teaches those kind of people a lesson.
