The Antidote
I am the poison.
I am tainted.
I'm what was once
And will always be fated.
I am the moon
And I am night.
I am the death
Of the good and the Light.
I am a warrior.
I am a coward.
I am your lover
For just this one hour.
I am inside you.
I am beneath you.
I am the answer
To all that bequeaths you
With legacies and dynasties
Of sex and the rawness.
I am the master
That owns what is flawless.
I am the poison.
You are my slave.
Give me a reason
And, for you, I'll behave.
I am the whip,
But you are my chains.
If I am the dryness,
Then you are my rain.
If I cannot see
Then you are my eyes.
If I never lived,
You would never have died.
I am the poison.
I am the death.
I am the ending.
The cause of last breaths.
You are my lover.
I am just yours.
I'm to be used
Until you use no more.
My blood is your blood.
My flesh is yours, too.
I give myself willingly.
I know what you'll do.
I killed you this morning.
I'll kill you again.
You'll kill me tonight
And my death will not end.
I'll die in small pieces.
So slowly and never
Will my little death ever seem
That much clever
Until after you tell me
What you have just done.
La petite mort.
I come and you've won.
I shake and I groan.
My poison, it seeps.
You lick it and taste.
You claim you get weak.
I hate you. You've killed me.
And killed me once, twice,
And multiple times
Have I fallen to your vice.
I am your poison.
I am your drug.
I'm what you hate,
But I do what you love.
I am your hell
Yet I am above
And below and inside and around
And you love!
I am the poison.
I am immoral.
I give you stress,
But I give you good oral.
My voice awakens you.
My voice is lullaby.
My voice is the reason
You laugh and you cry.
I sit on your lap
And I bounce and I keen.
You watch me be beautiful,
You watch me be mean.
I am the poison
And I am the claws
The venom drips from
And it flows down the walls
That block you from me
And block you from feeling.
I am the poison
And you'll never get healing.
This is what is
And this is what's chosen.
You'll never get loose
From the web that I've woven.
As much as you try
And no matter how hard,
You'll never be free
And you'll always be my charge.
I'll touch you and kill you.
I'll end and begin.
I'll give you death,
But I'll come and you'll win.
So no matter what we do,
We'll be tangled, entwined ever and ever.
We'll be neverending lovers
And I'll love you forever.
And you'll love me as I love you
And I'll allow you this quote,
"I am the poison,
But you are the antidote."
End
