Poison

Overwhelming sadness fills my heart
As you pour your tears into my cup.
I drink it
As I heave up my own turmoil.
I constantly partake,
But my cup runneth over.
It’s a poison flowing through my veins
As I swallow again and again;
Trying to take away your pain.
I can’t do it.
It’s killing my spirit.
A never ending reign of darkness;
Destroying any light I have left.
It’ll be the death of me.
