Kisses and Lies

I met Marcus at a crematorium. 

That should have been my first clue to keep away. 

He was nothing I wanted. Yet, everything I needed. 

He was dark, dangerous. 

And I couldn't stay away. 

Even when I wanted to. 

We made a deal—just our bodies. 

But lines got blurred. 

I asked for more than one night – I ended up asking for forever. 

What a mistake that was. 

What a mistake he was. 

Sometimes love burns.

And sometimes kisses and lies are all you get.
