You lure me with those things

That look like chocolates to me

When in reality they are drugs

You wait for me to say Peekaboo!

'

You lure me with your voice

That drips with sweetness and more

When in reality you are choking on sugar

You wait for me to say Peekaboo!

'

You lure me with that music

Which you say you composed on your own

When in reality you switched on the radio

You wait for me to say Peekaboo!

'

You lure me with shine and glitter

Which you say will make my eyes open

When in reality you are blinded by it

You wait for me to say Peekaboo!

'

You lure me with your beauty

That equals all the oceans put together

When in reality your whole being is sunburnt

You wait for me to say Peekaboo!

'

How much ever you go on luring me

My sense of decision making

Will,can,will and can never,

Be overridden by yours!

'

You wait forever,

And I will never say Peekaboo!

Author's Note

The speaker in the poem is a girl who talks to her first love. In this,he happened to know her feelings for him and being a bad person at heart,he tries to lure her. Having known now, that he is not a good person, the girl hides. He thinks she will come out anytime calling out a "Peekaboo". He takes advantage of her feelings, playing with them as one can see in the poem. The girl vows that she would never fall for his duplicate charms.
