BLACKMAIL

Blackmail as black as bad mail,

So we believed ,so they said,

At first it was funny,hilarious bail,

The innocent intimidation,in the name of laughter,

Then ignoran5tly the horse bore the mule,

Innocence turned to animosity.

Blackmail it really became,

Vivid and demanding,

i was trapped in a corner,

Memories of joy and sweetness turned sour,

Unfair i thought,it was pure evil,

How demons took form of angels!

Blackmail the unbearable pain,

The product of calculated temptation,

I was helpless,down and slain,

My once reason to smile turned Judas,

There  i stood mortgaged,facing the guillotine,

What a fool I'd been, a victim of staged desire
