Poison

Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

Struck by death for loving you
Numb with coldness for wanting you
With no blood running through my veins
when you told me you loved me,it was all in vain
Told you i felt the same
Before we met i felt so alive,now with you how can i survive
With those last words you gave me this
a gift but nothing less..than a kiss ..of death
or what i would call poison at that

Your love is poison
Built on broken hearts
Your love is poison
Built on lack of trust
Your love is poison
Taking away my life
Your love is poison
Chilling my last breath

You killed me with these words
I L O V E Y O U
Knowing they weren't true
but i chose to believe
and my pulse stop beating
found out you were creeping
Never gave a reason
with that last action
you gave me a gift
nothing less than a promise
and with that promise
You took my heart

Your love is poison
built on guilt and doubt
Your love is poison
always arguing and shouting
Your love is poison
Silencing my cries
Your love is poison
You never loved me right
