You're beautiful, just like a poisonous flower. So my eyes betray me, and I crave just a taste. I reach out for the brightest berry, and you wrap me in your arms. Deceptively sweet, growing with each dose I intake. But I consume too much of you, and I overdose; falling victim to a beautiful death.

You're beautiful, just like a poisonous flower. So my eyes betray me, and I crave just a taste. I reach out for the brightest berry, and you wrap me in your arms. Deceptively sweet, growing with each dose I intake. But I consume too much of you, and I overdose; falling victim to a beautiful death.
