Poison

Your love is a rare poison;
there is no antidote.
I want to be cured,
To be freed.

I watch you take pleasure,
in torturing me with your lies.
You smile and lash my heart again.

My pride is broken
my life is nothing.
I am a broken vase,
who had no defense.

A dead blackened rose,
From a faded love,
was all I had.
You live to watch me die.

Stop the pain, please
I'm tired, I want to sleep,
but you won't let me.
Please, let the fire smolder and die;
don't let it kill me anymore.
