Darkside of Love

What is love? It is as dangerous as a fire that burns your flesh raw It is as painful as a blade cutting through smooth and delicate skin leaving you bleeding for days It is as poisonous as Ricin that tears every tissue open inside your body leaving you with neverending pain It is as haunting as the very ghost itself leaving you with traces of everything you do It is as vicious as a lion ripping your flesh clean off of your bones It is as sharp as glass shattering into a million peaces piercing through your epidermis leaving scars on your powerless body It is a prison that keeps you hostage , brain washing you into thinking it is as pure as heaven
