You only think of me as poison ivy, as you think
I am killing everything within reach. Be very
Careful before you try to link
Me to natural disasters. Never judge me
Because I may only seem bad instead
Of being holy and good. I would never judge
You for being too good. Do not spread
Around rumors. Do not hold a grudge
Against me just because you were hurt
By some guy like me before.
Just because he left your heart in the dirt,
Does not mean I will even the score.
You not some consolation prize because
In my eyes, you will never have any flaws.
