The Devils Drink

poem by: Debby Airhart
Written on Mar 15, 2016 

The pull to be near was intoxicating.
And the more I tried to resist.      
the deeper I drank you in.
Drunk on moon shine kisses 
the haze in my eyes
Hid the devil in yours.
I erred on the edge of oblivion 
Blurring the lines between heaven and hell
I crossed a lake of fire for one more glimpse 
Of a razor toothed angelic smile.
