Blood And Poison

[calihak]

Poisonous to the skin I once caressed...
Scars of memories line the flesh.
Try to forget the pain they possessed
But they're shrouded in your shadow.

Crying molten tears that stain my cheeks-
Fiery trails of drying saline
Stand as my only defense.

You led me to my knees in a dream...
Alone and suffering.
Left twitching in the harsh reality
As you chose once more for me.

No hatred left but for myself.
No regrets but the day I breathed life.
No broken heart but the crude mending still shows.
No dreams but what you took from me.
