Your my venom, my poison that I can no longer resist

Even when I try to evade you, that light no longer seems to exist

Living for so long in a shadow of what you've become

Its an on going battle never to be won

The stakes are set higher as your taste becomes sweet

An eternity trapped in a life of someone I'll never meet

The tunnels grow longer, as my strength gets stronger

For your voice, once a trance now captivates me

In all that I've longed for, and all that I bleed

The water rising high above the ground

As I am one of the lost, and from only you, can I be found

The ripped and the torn, the struggles that I'm facing

As I continue to gravitate higher, steadily chasing

Swimming faster, shedding blood as I reached the pavement

Your voice calls out to me, however your nowhere to be found, I didn't know what this meant

A fire in the distance, not to far from here

Invades the path to you, closely near

As I am put off track and forced to take a new direction

There finally seems to be a road, safely leading to this affection

Yet there is no safe place as I wander even more

I feel I'm so much farther from you, than I was before

As my journey still remains, what I'm closing into

I promise one day soon, I will finally find you

As days turn to nights and nights turn to weeks

I will not let this distance, be the final defeat

My venom, my poison, hidden somewhere amongst the midst

The one heart that I've always longed for, I can no longer resist

I hear your voice as I lay my head down for the night

As I wake in the morning, I continue on with my fight

The sun sheading light, to show me the way

The moon as my shelter, so I can live for another day

Our lives aren't going to hold on forever

Yet the little we do have is worth being together

A reminder that I am no longer afraid

As my joruney brings me to a large facade

For there are no steps, nor windows only one small door

As I hold my breath hoping this is the end of whats in store

Approaching the walk way I hear a voice not of my own

To see that it is you, time stands still, for I am not alone

Running to your side, for it is you that I've missed

Your touch, your smile, everything, and your kiss

Yet as I come to touch you, finally at last

As everything shatters, for I was deceived as you become broken glass

My realization settles in that your absence still exist

As I search once more for the venom, the poison, that I can no longer resist

For on the mirror, is something seen even clearer

The fog that has seemed to have been leading the way

Pushing through coming into a field, now knowing your needed even more

For it is dark and with my heart set on you, I'm more determined than I was before

Panicking, franctically, as I feel  sudden movement, warmth like you wouldn't believe

Its not until I open my eyes, that I'm laying in bed with you right beside me

I gasp for air, trying to breathe while I choke

As I tried to find the words to say as I spoke

You held my hand, and you held me tight

While I was trying to take in this awful fright

You kiss me, you touch me, you never let me go

You say I love you,  dont ever leave me, because I told you so

I sigh in relief as you tell me it was all a dream

Yet as I look down, how can I explain the blood that I see

Your my venom, my poison that I'll never be able to resist

As I recollect my thoughts, was it a dream or did everything I imagined really exist?

Enjoyed reading Kate. Some relationships can be poisonous and hard to resist,while we hope that love is the antidote and will cure all.

A rush of emotions almost beyond the
grasp yet with ripples of promise,

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed reading it! I wasn't exactly sure where I was going with it, when I started writing it, but as I went farther and farther into the poem, I sort of thought, it would've been better to leave it with questions, rather than just giving it a simple answer at the end! I was shocked that I even wrote this myself! I enjoyed writing it though!
