Love Poison
It’s interesting, the effect of this thing called love
Stronger than the strongest man, it weakens
Wilder than the wildest beast, it runs
Deeper than the depths of the sea, it goes
Lips that speak lies, are yearned to be kissed
Hands that yield nothing, are longed to be held
Where once I was strong, you’ve made me weak
Stolen is the breath of live you gave
Returned has the thirst that you quenched
A heart that beats empty, cries out to be filled
A body that lies lonely, desires to be held
A bittersweet poison it is, this love
So much joy does it give, much more does it take
It has the power to lift, the power to drown
So sweet, the injection, so bitter, the extraction
