Femme Fatale

She uses seduction for diversion while manipulation is her weapon.

In a single gaze, she can light a fire of consuming passion and witness you burn alive with sadistic amusement and a point of boredom.

She can torture without remorse, as the darkness is her playground.

She is pure lethal beauty and excels in how to use attractiveness, cunning and intellect to her advantage to suck fervently the power that she lacks.

She's confident because she doesn't believe in her power but she knows exactly how to outsource it and make it hers.

Only those who can see through her spells can see the frightened maiden she hides.

Although she presents as the archetypal ice queen, within her frozen heart is locked the sweetest nectar of love.

Then comes the day where the constant efforts she makes to maintain that illusion around and within her are not enough anymore to stop the burning flame of her heart.

The bursting fire of her soul start melting the layers of protective ice until nothing is left but LOVE.

Kneeling cracked open, she surrenders to her only true power: her devotion.

In my personal journey, this has been the archetype I have identified with the most and the hardest to detach from.

The first time I asked myself, “who am I without her?”  I felt petrified by my blank answer. I started facing the falling apart of my biggest mask, the strongest protection that was lying between my heart and the rest of the world.

What is your journey with her?
