I Am Toxic
I am toxic to
those around
Better off
Never found
I am bad either way
My reputation has me dismayed
Those who come never stay
Or they only aim
To send me away
I am toxins
In the air
Filling your lungs
And the atmosphere
I am deadly
But never proud
My words have and will
Never be found
I am alone in this cold world
Like a horrid smell
From the depth below
Though I'd consider myself
Awfully bold.
I will never be one they hold
But only to which they all will loathe
They streets whisper secrets
Of me
How I am found in parts of the sea
All that stray close
Never are safe
Because I am the toxin
And the waste.
Nothing more deadly have u ever faced
And nothing of which can I erase
