Familar Taste of Poison

Familar Taste of Poison

A Poem by Joshua J. Certain

Lie to me like you love too

Give me promises

Promises that will never go through

Let hope be the poison to kill me

Let your hand restrain my every heartbeat

Grind your lips

Razor sharp

Flavored cherry

Press them wet against mine

Lie and say you love me

Your poison is so familiar

Let it sink into my veins

Drug me

So I see blindly your evil deeds

Prey upon your personal fulfillment

Then like the arachnid

I begin to die

As you gracefully leave

This familiar taste of poison

Stains upon my lips

I love you

But can do without

Your last kiss

I feel the hurt and pain in this piece, and I understand it. Good imagery. Good work.
