Toxic Love
The Black mushroom cloud
Filling up my Blue
Sky
You blew in like the acid wind,
Disrupting my system
Sending shockwaves
Through my life in a
haze
You brought fire and heat
To my inner peace
Brown eyes, smoldering my desires
flash burned my need
Your toxic touch scorched
Bore holes in my soul
Keloid my opened wounds
Yet I wasn't aware, or just didn't care
My heart didn't recognize the poison
Seeping into my organs
Proliferated in your lies
The inner bleeding unseen
You'd become the cancer
That no other can heal
When you left, I felt
The back blast, a vacuum
That sucked up what
Was left of me
( Sorry this poem is hundred and eleven words. I hope that's okay? I couldn't round it out any other way.)
