As the venom poured out of my mouth
I watched its fumes enter your body
I watched it reach your heart
It covered your soul and stole your strength
Your body quivered from the sudden attack
The guilt exploded in my heart
Releasing through my eyes
Guilty for my weary heart couldn't ingest the poison
Guilty for choosing to save
My drowning soul
My rusting heart
My dying life
Where were you when I
Screamed, cried, begged and pleaded
As my smile
My light
My love
Quickly faded?
So much emotion in this one. I feel you. I hear you. I've been in this place...
