Your words to me are weakness.
They slay me to the ground.
Sometimes you make me feel lost,
Though I'm wishing I were found.
Your voice to me is quicksand,
So soft yet full of danger.
Sometimes you start out happy,
But in the end you're filled with anger.
Your eyes to me are icy,
So beautiful yet so hard.
Sometimes I pray to fix you,
But some people are just too scarred.
Your fist to me is deadly,
So powerful yet deserved.
It makes me question your love for me,
And my tears feel like they burn.
My love for you is toxic,
So enchanting yet so wrong.
Sometimes I feel I'm drowning.
I feel like I'm going.
Going.
Gone.
