Welcome Home

Love's a killer
A psychopathic memory
Void of empathy
It's a burning match
Ten seconds from making love
To a kerosene lamp
Fallen...Broken...
Burnt

Love is poisonous
A king cobra
Striking back
Stinging
Teeth dug through flesh
Injecting venom into my soul

Love is loud
A lions roar
Shattering through silence while it
Mauls the innocence of peace
Slowly crushing it's prey
With the pressure between two vices

Love is death
A crippling fear that death himself
Is sharpening his sword just for you
Your name is carved into his charcoal heart
You were born
Just to be killed

And with rotted maggots for his sinister smile,
He welcomes even the most cautious traveler's to their pre-chosen seat in hell.
