you people talk about
alcohol, drugs
***
and money
these are your poison
these are you honey.
and these poisons
make you giggle
and dream
laugh
make you scream.
these are your poisons.
and they make you feel
hungover
and cold
sore
and empty
but these are still your poisons.
but my poison
is that of your eyes
your milky blue liquid
that fills those two lies
my poison
lies
between your fingers
where all your secrets
hide
that's where I find
all your troubles linger
my poison lies
in the tangles of your hair
let your chest calm and rise
as you don't notice my stare.
these are your poisons.
my poison lies in
your empty bed
no pillow, no head.
where you left my embrace
and you poisoned my grace.
