All the food I eat is poisonous.
It burns my mouth and scrapes my throat.
I don't like it yet I keep swallowing.

All the words I speak are poisonous.
Embarrassing.
They slip right off my tounge.
I want to stop but I can't shut up.

All the people I know are poisonous.
They eat away at me and leech my soul.
Everyday I'm alone yet surrounded.
I hate them all but I keep going back.

My whole life is poisonous.
Nobody wants a poisoned person near.
Nobody wants a poisonous partner.
I need to cut out all the poison.
