You were my chosen poison, I think I always knew how this would end. The slow decay. You were sweet, in a sickly kind of way, the kind that lingers, clings. I still taste you on my tongue, poisoned memories dancing slowly, like they know I won’t stop them. Flavours I will never forget, even if I tried. I let you dissolve into me, staining the soft parts, decaying every bit of beauty. Some poisons don’t **** you. They keep you alive, rotting you slowly from the inside, making sure you will taste them forever. You— were my chosen poison. I still taste you dancing on my tongue.

Poison
You were my chosen poison, I think I always knew how this would end. The slow decay. You were sweet, in a sickly kind of way, the kind that lingers, clings. I still taste you on my tongue, poisoned memories dancing slowly, like they know I won’t stop them. Flavours I will never forget, even if I tried. I let you dissolve into me, staining the soft parts, decaying every bit of beauty. Some poisons don’t **** you. They keep you alive, rotting you slowly from the inside, making sure you will taste them forever. You— were my chosen poison. I still taste you dancing on my tongue.
