Panic button

The Angel

I felt it profoundly

He just hit the panic button

As devil

He kicked on it hardly

“Why is he always looking at me?”

Said I

“Why he never tells me the f**king word?”

Murmured I

Still, he never spoke a word

Splash, my heart fell and burst in a snap

Babe, love, honey…

I waited for these simple words

But he only looked at me

Smiled to me

Froze me

And then muted me

I couldn’t escape from his charm

Like a sweet sin, his touch was so intense and luscious

Slowly and smoothly, his eyes shaved my unfinished eyelash

Like a stream mine rivered instead

Like a brush his brown eyes finished my grotesque hairstyle

And my heart crumbled in dust

I whispered no, but the sound biased into a “yeah”

They vigorously tongued me hair to toes though

Sweetly and profoundly, they lowered down my skin

And my blood clotted into a harsh ice

I consequently fell into his arms

And he let me crush into a marble wall instead

He punished my fallen heart like a demon

and disappeared abruptly like an angel

Nothing happened

Just stared at the flying angel lighting in the sky

    I love your metaphors and description. They combine to bring the sound of frustration to the poem. This is great work.
