Venom

Venom

A Poem by Punky Soleil
"

I wrote this in about five minutes. Rough draft.

"
There's a darkness inside you
It creeps out in the night
The venom you spit
The anger inside 
Clouds on you soul
It has come to blind you

The poising you inject
Slowly kills away
as the ones you love the most
lie mercy as your prey

Slowly and steadily
Your fangs start to show
The skin of your mask sheds to the floor

Footsteps become a rattle
There is no hiss of a warning
When you choice to show your teeth
Noise becomes silent 
Bites no longer pain
The venom feels useless

I've succumbed to you pain.

Punky Soleil
It needs work. It doesn't flow like I want it too.
