Breaking the Boy

She doesn't know what she does to him
This devil with an angelic face
She teases him and tempts him
With hints of her velvet and lace
Since the very first day he saw her
His heart unfurled before her feet
Little, now, did this boy know
Her world was littered with deceit
She'd been broken many times before
By all the men in her life
She was never the kind of girl
He could take to be his wife
Despite all this he continued on
And willingly she fell for him
Always moving with the tide
Giving her heart and soul at whim
She didn't mean to hurt him
He knew it would come to this
As much as he tried to keep her
She left him with a kiss
With her gone he moved on
Trying not to place the blame
Of his passionate love gone wrong
On her heart he couldn't tame
Soon she didn't remember him
Her long forgotten toy
He was just a victim of her game
Of breaking the boy.
