Sheep's Clothing

There he stood before her willing eyes
A wolf in sheep's clothing, a clever disguise
In sweater and jeans, just a little to tight
With a smile so alluring and teeth optic white

The wolf made certain the sheep noticed his grin
Framed by a handsome face with a fine chiseled chin
He moved very closely when he spoke to her
She did not realize what was about to occur

She ignored the red flags and her inner voice
That said he was bad news, she made the wrong choice
She fell for the lies the to her he fed
The sheep failed to see she was being mislead

The wolf removed his sheep's clothing with methodical style
Speaking words of love then spewing vile bile
His goal to control all her thoughts, moves and deeds
The sheep's role in his plot, to fulfill all his needs

The sheep fell victim to his diabolical scheme
But as time passed he became much too mean
She found it impossible to meet all his crazy demands
And obey without question the wolf's absurd commands

The sheep's spirit fought back and defiantly refused
To continue to be so callously used
No longer willing to be his domestic whore
The wolf won many battles, but the sheep won the war
