The Toxic You And Me – Part 2

The other story wasn’t coming together so I’m tossing you poetry instead. Connected to the first story

Dragging me under
This need to break you
Tie you forever to my side
By blood and by breath
Bones crushing, crashing down

I leave, come back, leave
Unable to break free
Even as we break each other
As things fall apart around us
We’ll live in the pain we create

Marks on your thighs
Scratches on my face
Fists fly, always your fists
Anger in my eyes
My blood on your lips

We are toxic
Threatening to kill
Each other, ourselves
Until there’s nothing left
And this love can swallow us whole
