Love is Poison

I drank the wine

From your sweet lips

And felt the fire

From fingertips

That touched my soul’s

Intrinsic need

Digging deep

You made me bleed

With love’s unbridled

Deep despair

I searched your heart

And found you shared

The piece I thought

Was mine alone

My faith in you

Had lost its home

 

Where will all my passion rest

Who will take away my breath

What will satisfy my need

For you have caused this heart to bleed

By bending low to kiss

Your angel’s soft and waiting lips

With deception
