Poison

You were like a poison,
running through my veins.
Taking over my mind, body, and soul.
There was no cure and I had given myself up to it.
Enjoying how it made me tremble,
my body overflowing with passion.
A poison that brought heat to my cold heart,
serenity to my tortured soul, light to my eyes,
excitement to my meaningless life.
But just as quickly as you took over me, you left.
Draining that delicious poison out of my being.
Leaving behind only the traces of a poison
that now hurts, burns, and kills.
Oh sweet poison, how deadly you have become.
