when you love, you love with mercury. your love is acerbic, abrasive, acidic. you are poisonous. you expand in my heart and spread like branches through my veins.

your love suffocates me with every minute, and as i start to lose oxygen, i hallucinate and i start to believe in you, believe that you are good for me. your love tightens my throat and freezes my blood. i lose circulation, start going numb.

y o u   m a k e   m e   n u m b .

you love me with mercury, corrosively, scraping my skin off with every "it won't happen again". but baby, there is no cure for this kind of poison.
