A boy sweet, charming
Not
Wicked
Behind the mask
No feeling
Whatso ever
Unloved
So tries to find some
Charming
As a wolf
Cheater
Not talking about chess
Snake
Twisting your way squeezing slowly, ringing out hearts
Fireworks
Pretty from a distance, dangerous up close
River
happy, amazing
Until you meet the rapids and drown
Bottomless
Like a pit
And your soul
Lying
to get your way
Demons
In your past but that gives you no reason
To break a fragile heart
