My sweet enemy (updated)



In the fusion of your allure, I am bound,
Each facet of beauty, my heart has found.
Blinded by the brilliance in your eyes so deep,
Your smile, a dagger, into my soul it seeps.

Your form, a masterpiece, holds me tight,
In every curve and contour, my thoughts take flight.
Perhaps I could have resisted one alone,
But against your charms, I am overthrown.

Even in distance, your presence persists,
In thoughts of you, my longing insists.
Resistance crumbles in the face of your grace,
In your embrace, I find my rightful place.

I surrender, my love, to your captivating hold,
For in you, beauty's story unfolds.
At your feet, I lay my heart's decree,
Conquered by you, my sweet enemy.
