Sweet Venom by Blanca Alicia Garza

Sweet Venom

Your poisonous love 

has entered deeply 

through my veins 

and buries me alive. 

I can not breathe and 

feels like a demon

is sitting on my chest.

My remains are just 

cold flesh and bones 

heartlessly beaten 

and cold as a stone.

But I would rather die 

a thousand times than

stop savoring your

sweet, warm venom.
