Sweet But Poison

Oh, there's a door,

Always been there.


I see below the door,

There was a light;


Probably comes

peace there,

I may believe.



Still, appeared without a knob;

How to enter?


Tempting though,

The thought of void.


Losing the sense;

feelings along with self



Merely you; my purpose.

nothing else matters.


Began again; reading

the psalm, you gave me





And I sing,

"Oh, baby.

Sweet but poison you,

always my lotion to slew."


Sneaking back at you,

Never knew why, 'coz

I love is, you?


I breathe within your world

of make-belief,


Pushed the circle, never

known where it doffs.


Not up, I see!

perhaps, down faced the hell.


I can hear the trumpets;

Maybe, my death is near.


Haha! Titter as a

Saturday drug on

my veins; desired it.


Late parents, listen to me

"I'm coming, shall join you soon!"


After all, life is no life

when you are my wife.


Seemed I am a wuss

"Nah, I'm brave, For being such a,"


I shut my mind

However,

there was nothing else to mind now.
