poison drips from lying lips
those things so sweet to kiss
sucking the poison deep into
our souls, to corrupt all that
is pure within
we drink deep of that poison well
to hear what we want to hear
burying reason and logic
deep within because the venom
tastes so sweet
there is no antidote, no cure
we are never whole again
damage done never to be undone
hearts blackened with the evil
that others speak
