Poison

 I love you 
I smiled and kissed your lips
Your tongue dripped with poison
But it tasted so sweet

 I love you 
You pulled down my pants with a force
I clung to your body wanting to stay here forever

 I love you  
How could a phrase so sweet turn so sour 
I started to taste your poison 
I unclung from you with haste 

             ~ I had to leave before it was too late
