Toxic Love

by Wasted Fake Smiles   Jun 26, 2008


Here I am again, dipping my face in the same old poison,
Starting off with smiles, ending in crying tears of crimson.
Love is an endless cycle of happiness and pain,
To give you another try must mean I am insane.

It's been so long since my smile upon my face was true,
Seems the last time it was here, was my last time with you.
Now you're back in my life, telling me not to let you leave,
As much as I'm falling, it's just too hard for me to believe.

But I'm sticking around, falling more and more each day,
As much as I want to run before I get hurt, I stay.
I love you all over, just as I did those years ago,
Now you're saying for me to never let you go.

I slept in your arms; I slept by your side,
Seems my feeling of resentment that night died.
This toxic love has always ended in heartbreak,
But you say never again will you cause this ache.

I just hope you're telling the truth...

    Great poem. It's funny, but it's true. No love can stand on it's own without great compromise, and the compromise has to be on both parts. I'm starting to believe that we are too independent to live as pairs. We just piss each other off. Life just becomes a big compromise. Unfortunately, it never ends, but we just learn to compromise better, lol. It sounds like you know a lot about compromise then he does, but he'll come around. We men are not as smart or as patient when it comes to relationships but we always regret it later when it's too late. Thanks for a great read.
