do you ever fall for someone you know

is poisonous?

you know they're killing you,

slowly,

but you keep drinking from their devil cup.

your lips drip honey,

your veins filled with venom.

they are forbidden fruit,

which only makes them look more delicious.

you know how wrong they are

but you can't quit,

an addiction to the pain they cause,

the way they touch you in the dark,

the words they give you,

coated in sickly sweet honey.

everything about them is wrong

your brain sending signals to your heart

but you're stuck like

sap to a tree.

i can see how adam and eve

were fooled so easily...
