Two Men

The serial killer was on The Dating Game in the 70’s

And he won

      He charmed the unlucky lady in front of a live studio audience 

And she did end up going on a date with him

She didn’t know 

    He murdered several women before the show. 

And 54 years later

 The actor

    Falls in the love with the interviewee 

Live on camera 

    During a mock date interview

That is usually hilarious 

   But this time

The tension is real

    The chemistry is pulsing 

And the interviewee and the actor are flustered

    He ends up asking her out on a real date afterwards

    It is a moment caught on camera that feels too intimate to be seen by us

And we can’t help but smile at the two people falling for each other 

Two men

    One that seemed genuine, even though he is an actor

And the other man 

    He seemed like a charming photographer 

But he was only acting

    He wore a mask

And underneath it was a killer

Two women

    Both smitten in the moment 

Both with bright lights in their eyes 

   Both navigating through the truth and the lies

Will she see through his disguise?

  Will she look into his eyes and see love?

Or will she look up at the sky as he takes her picture and die?
