Mysterious girl

Is she a story
Is she a verse
Is she a blessing
Is she a curse
As frail as butterfly's wing
Or venomous as Scorpio’s sting
She is as beautiful as a butterfly
She glows more like a firefly
She may be ignored in the light
More the dark falls, more she looks bright
captivating are her looks
Like poets have mentioned in their books
She has nectar in her lips
I drowned myself in and took some sips
Little did I know what happened then
My eyes were closed but I could see heaven
Never seen it before though,
it must be like this…
The glimpse of that moment fulfilled my wish
A sudden blow , I woke up with pain
A Dagger in my heart and a big red stain
No one was around but that mysterious girl
Her hand red with my blood
And her smile as heinous as flood
