Toxic

I've come to realize,
You're not good for me.
Your heart is as black as coal.
Your brains are mush like a zombie,
Your mood swings are like a roller coaster,
Not knowing when it will be safe to get off.
You're as toxic as one human being can be.
I was thirsty a long time ago.
I drank you like poison ivy from the vine,
A toxic venom from a snake.
I have felt nothing but loneliness,
And thru the years has just gotten worse.
Nightmares!
Keep me up at night,
Replaying like a bad horror movie.
Sleep that comes and goes,
Never ceases to amaze me.
I've come to realize,
Your no good for me.
You're as toxic as poison wine can get.
My loneliness keeps tears in my eyes,
Yet I would rather be lonely all the time.
Then live with the toxicity coming from you.
You can drink all the wine in the world,
Empty a snake of all its venom,
Drink from the vein of poison,
And that still wouldn't make you sweet enough to love.
Because your toxic from head to toe,
Your blood of your body is toxic,
Full of poison,
And hatred.
