Unseen Nemisis

Caught in a maelstrom of emotion 
reduced  to unbridled,phobic obsession.
That first moment of recognition clouding any notion
of a sorcery induced to possession.
Senses once dormant, now passively coerced into life,
oblivious to the parched aridness  of a previous existence.
Becomes a flourishing,oasis beckoning his muse to remain
and be his candle to her perpetual and  eternal flame.
The elixir of passion replacing life blood  by sustaining
a foolish heart,given with no limits,no blame.
Yet taken  greedily with no thoughts of nurture to impart.
Intermittent amusement provoking a smile,not credulous
he perceives as a shy inducement to surrender his heart....
Too late- and forever her slave and she..... his inexorable nemesis
