Metaphoric Poem (Mayella Ewelle)

She is a leach
She drinks the blood of happiness.
Whilst she is a leach,
She is also a parasite.
One that take the happiness,
And replaces it with her guilt.
She is a story telling spider,
Weaving intricate lies to keep her safe.
And she does not feel sorry.

For she is a cowardly child.
But also a fearful adult.
She drinks the blood because hers,
Is gone.
She’s a human for not wanting to feel her guilt.
And her webs are tragic yet false.
Assuming she’ll be able to fall back on them.
Her problem wasn’t these things though.
Her problem,
Was lust.
