With aged wine in my grail.
As my cup starts to overflow
When in life I seemed to fail.
It drowns me yet I cannot tell
My senses are ensnared.
The wine is like a pit of hell
And yet I cannot care.
The stench of the burning drink
Smelt of rotting flesh.
My sanity is at it's brink.
I cannot see through this mesh.
They foretold I would pick my poison
And it was one who I did meet.
For the poison I picked was love
And the taste sickly sweet.
Yet when the poison reached my gut
It took a bitter taste.
Everything in life was boading well, but
I learned life was a waste.
My birth was a mistake
I knew that when I cried.
For never was I given a break
Even though I tried.
This wine, This cup was my life
That overflowed with poison.
Yet the poison was from one love
And was picked with reason. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 170 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Faust [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Sweetest Poison

Topic: EmotionalPoetry

I walked the hollowed halls
With aged wine in my grail.
As my cup starts to overflow
When in life I seemed to fail.
It drowns me yet I cannot tell
My senses are ensnared.
The wine is like a pit of hell
And yet I cannot care.
The stench of the burning drink
Smelt of rotting flesh.
My sanity is at it's brink.
I cannot see through this mesh.
They foretold I would pick my poison
And it was one who I did meet.
For the poison I picked was love
And the taste sickly sweet.
Yet when the poison reached my gut
It took a bitter taste.
Everything in life was boading well, but
I learned life was a waste.
My birth was a mistake
I knew that when I cried.
For never was I given a break
Even though I tried.
This wine, This cup was my life
That overflowed with poison.
Yet the poison was from one love
And was picked with reason.
