Love leaves

Love leaves a bitter aftertaste
Just like bile in the throat
Burning cruelly inside
Rotting the heart
So it won’t feel again

Love unveils a darkness
That covers the soul
Choking the spirit
It smiles at the pain
How it destroys the humanity inside

Love whispers a lie
As it preys on the lonely
Promising a heaven that never arrives
Delivering a hell
That becomes a recurring nightmare

Love is a raw animal
That comes to rip you apart
Breaks hope like it was glass
Leaving the splinters
Deep in wounds that won’t heal
