Poison Innocence

Poison innocence; Innocent poison let it flow Poison innocence how deep does this rabbit hole go? They say I write angst quite well… That's an easy thing when you've touched the gates of hell...after all, doomed to romance and ill fated love sure do sell. Lay me down on a bed of thorns...where are all the roses? When I pull away, draw me closer… Entwined, remind me Satiate my restless soul. Wrap yourself around my twists and turns,fill the crevices,keep me whole. Abandon sanity, open the portal, take the lead Rip out my ice cold heart, return it to life, this i plead. Maybe I've forgotten,maybe I'm lost Maybe I'm hopeless and reckless at any cost. The dark side glitters as its siren calls This is the place where devils dance and the angel falls. Broken, tattered, shattered, torn Rise again, take on a different form. Phoenix rises through pain Isn't sunshine supposed to follow the torrents of rain? Shards of glass pierce my fingers as I hold onto the past. Poison ire..love cannot last. In desolation and isolation beauty will die Transform, reborn, hearts heal, tears dry. Follow me into this tortured web Keep me, love me as waves flow and ebb. Innocent poison, let it flow Poison innocence, show me how deep this rabbit hole will go.
