POISONOUS SNAKE

This pain that you have given me

is poisonous like I had been

bitten by a snake

my poor body starts to shake.

In my blood unwinds

in a wild desire

that sets my soul on fire.

At times when I look at you

I soon start to tremble

feeling so confused

your eyes look yellow

almost like the moon

that comes out in spring.

But in the darkness

among the falling of leaves

I see you walking alone a red gravel path

when you looked back

I heard you hissing

like you were ready to attack.

All-day and all night

my poor mind

was ready to fight

I could see your desire

that flames over a wildfire.

in my darken dreams

I saw you standing over me

you really have a way that scared me

because when I looked at you

I truly thought I saw a poisonous snake.
