The Seduction

By Michelle Carr

“Come hither”

It beckons.

“Just pause for a moment

look for that missing piece.

You have the ability to make me whole.”

I pause,

the temptation is great.

Finding one piece easily,

the seduction softly begins.

“That’s it,

you’ve got it.

I only appear to be impossible.

You can solve me.

Take a seat,

stay a while.”

I link two more.

My willpower diminishes.

Determination surfaces.

I WILL solve this challenge.

Nothing is impossible.

Hours pass by without my notice

“I knew you couldn’t resist.

You are mine.

And here you will remain

until I let you go.”
