“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.”
