Love's Poison

Post by AshallaynTallyn »

Love's Poison

The pain is too much, too much to bear,
Tearing and ripping my insides, my organs and all.

The love that I used to see,
Your shining smile, your bright face,
Filling me with a warmth that can’t be described.
Just your solid presence beside me,
Dissolves my fears and worries.

If only I could see you again.
The loneliness and my longing,
Overwhelming me.
I reach out for you.

But you left me here, abandoned
By the one person who I thought loved me.
I gave you my love,
You broke me apart and shattered my heart.
Why did this have to be,
When everything did not simply need to be.
What have I done to truly deserve this?

It’s too late now, too late for me.


Love is a curse.
Its poison drips,
Deadly and lethal.
Don’t risk it.
Run and leave,
save thyself.


Woot! This is my first ever competition entry :hooray:
I'm not sure if this poem fits the topic but yeah :D It kinda does and kinda doesn't :orly:
*might edit the poem a bit, to make it flow better*

I think it's great, and I'm glad I read it. Sounds like you gathered round all the lovesick magi for story-time and then spell'd them.
