Poetry: Poison

By Liam

Your presence spikes me

Impaled, your words pin me

Screaming to a spider bite

This noxious poison

Corrupts our spelling too

A blackened web spreads

Pain

Its antidote within my mind,

Shrivels while I gasp

Sweet death we do play

Coagulation takes the blood

While breathing I slowly choke

Not lack of air, absence of love

Frozen in the morning light

Takes my sight to distant barren landscapes

Alone, bones bleached

I stand await

Darkness take me beyond that heavy door of day

Let night come, open the gate

Away

Away

Away.
