The Next Victim
Her eyes are dark,
Her lips are full,
Her hair flows down her shoulders.
She’s on the prowl,
for a victim to snare.
The more vulnerable the better.
She uses words to catch her prey,
They sound so innocent, so sad.
Who can resist those entrancing notes
Of a little girl so hurt.
He was weak.
He was taken in.
The next victim in her love.
I tried to help,
I did my best.
To pull him from her lair.
But it was too late.
I lost him to her spell.

Simple and expressive. Hits home with anguish. A universal problem !
