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. ~V~ |

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! Kate |
