Bittersweet

You came unannounced,
Nothing could have prepared me
for your conquest
Heart, like a primitive fragmented land,
bowed before your
sophisticated civilisational allure,
How was I to know,
Innocence could cast a
shadow of cruelty,
That after your plunder,
you'd leave back memories of deceit,
lingering,
silently, painfully,
In all the lonely corners
that witnessed your exploits,
And I, your prime accomplice-
in my own downfall,
Would disintegrate, disappear,
slowly, as you walk out...
