Delicious/Toxic
Delicious yet so toxic
Like antifreeze in wine
I get so ravenous
But you hand out numbers for the line
The less you say, the more I forget
Whatever made me walk away
With every glance or whisper
I swear I found my place
My heart's on fire
Your head's held higher
I'll wait on you here to tear me down
My dreams are on ice
You've never looked so nice
I doubt that you'll turn around
The notes that always seem to play
Whenever you walk in a room
The way your hair frames your face
All obscures the assured doom
You're velvet, you're lace
You're leather, my grave
I'll be at your feet by dawn
But you've known it all along
My heart's on fire
Your head's held higher
I'll wait on you here to tear me down
My dreams are on ice
You've never looked so nice
I doubt that you'll even turn around
A poem, well-written
A heart, thrice bitten
A villain, a victim
An ending, forbidden
A bouquet for a cloudy day
A chance to make a grand display
Rejected
Did you ever think that you could be the one (Delicious yet so toxic)
For someone other than yourself? (Flowers with hidden thorns)
Did you ever consider you're less saint, more sinner (For all these gifts and antics)
Maybe quit while you're ahead (You're judging me as I perform)
Like antifreeze in wine
I get so ravenous
But you hand out numbers for the line
The less you say, the more I forget
Whatever made me walk away
With every glance or whisper
I swear I found my place
My heart's on fire
Your head's held higher
I'll wait on you here to tear me down
My dreams are on ice
You've never looked so nice
I doubt that you'll turn around
The notes that always seem to play
Whenever you walk in a room
The way your hair frames your face
All obscures the assured doom
You're velvet, you're lace
You're leather, my grave
I'll be at your feet by dawn
But you've known it all along
My heart's on fire
Your head's held higher
I'll wait on you here to tear me down
My dreams are on ice
You've never looked so nice
I doubt that you'll even turn around
A poem, well-written
A heart, thrice bitten
A villain, a victim
An ending, forbidden
A bouquet for a cloudy day
A chance to make a grand display
Rejected
Did you ever think that you could be the one (Delicious yet so toxic)
For someone other than yourself? (Flowers with hidden thorns)
Did you ever consider you're less saint, more sinner (For all these gifts and antics)
Maybe quit while you're ahead (You're judging me as I perform)
