A Sword With Two Sides

Deviation Actions

Do you know how it feels?
Puking your guts up all night
Because the thought of trusting someone
Literally makes you sick?

My heart could cave in
Beneath the pressure of caring
And my lungs could collapse
Filled with the toxin of attraction.

My mind is full of you
And no bleach exists to erase
Your face burned into my brain
Like ashes and sulphur.

The taste of you in my mouth
Is vanilla and smoke
Your skin on mine
Is velvet and sandpaper.

Adoration is freedom and chains
Submission and control
Love is a sword with two sides
But both pierce my soul with vigour.
