Your Demise

You look at me like it hurts

as if you might die with a glance

turn to stone if you stare

but like the pain would be greater

if I was never there.



You hear my voice and you cringe

as if the pain makes you cry

makes you tear your own heart

but still life would be sensless

if with my words you did part.



You feel my hand and you burn

as if you'll waste away at my touch

and blow away in the night

though you never knew a girl

who felt so right.



You breathe me in as if you'd choke

as if the scent of autumn would be death

leaving you frozen on the ground

but you can't remember

when so hard your heart did pound.



You taste my lips like their doused in venomn

as if you'll find your poison as death

while you fall without a cry

yet you still love me whole-heartedly

your true demise.
