Poison



It wasn’t love
That poisoned me so
No
That wasn’t love

The venom that
Infused the veins
And killed the spirit
Emanated from:
Abandonment
Resentment
Indifference
Betrayal
False promises
Bad faith
And lies

It wasn’t love
That did such damage

No

Love
Could have been
Would have been
Should have been
The antidote

Love is the antedote ... and me thinks the gentleman protests a bit too much.

Sometimes.... love can be both the poison and the antidote.

I agree with June. Love is the antidote. It's time, Jonas.

So true. Love doesn't poison; all the other things you mentioned do. This was wonderful and it's hitting so close to home.

Yes, Anna, we humans are remarkably similar.
