To the Grave

Douse me in sugar coated lies 
Bind me with possessive ties 
caress me with that bitter torment 
I know your heart is sitting dormant 
Kiss me with those poisonous lips 
Embrace me with your lethal grip 
Compel my mind to now concave 
As you Love me deeply to the grave

Powerfully short poem, El. But it packs so much emotional truth. An instant fave for sure. Golden ink glow poetry! Love and peace always.

Beautifully written but rather disturbing write, Elaine. Although passionate in its intent, his type of relationship might well lead to an early grave. Minimally to pain and heartbreak.
