The Poison I Used To Love

Our love was once so beautiful
Before we had to kiss and fall
The timing was horrible
We had once been so beautiful
You kissed my lips,
And told me goodbye
After that, I proceeded to cry
I had felt as if I had just died inside
Your lips held the kiss of death,
They always made me get undressed
I’d lie to my others lovers, say I didn’t have another
Than I’d sneak you in at night
Put up a measly fight
But it never worked
Your touch was deadly
Your kisses vile as poison.
Oh that things I wish now that I had never done,
At first they seemed fun
And they had given me so much adrenaline
But they had produced so much sin
And now the sun is gone 
And I am left here filled with this guilt, that is so strong
But I can do nothing more than carry on
And search for the love for myself that I had lost all along
