With chains of soft velvet you snared me
Willingly, in your trap I stepped
My mind; body and soul - caged
In silken, smooth, bare trap
Until you sprung it
Sharp poisoned barbs
Pierced my hide ...
Bloody ...
Wrecked ...

Note: I purposely used 'bare' instead of 'bear' here to show that it was not hidden. Also, an illusion to skin.
