He kisses my lips, but all I taste is venom. The radioactive scent on his body, smelled like my favorite cologne he wears, and my perfume.
Of course it's all in my head.
His skin isn't oozing with toxins, but his brain is. His lips don't taste like venom but his words sting like it.
He was toxic, and I knew it, but I still stayed, because what other option did I have?
// okay I never do this but this is a really important part that I like. I feel like most people aren't informed about toxic relationships or just bad ones in general. It's toxic if they dehumanize you, don't listen to your input, abuse you, or they just make you feel like crap. If you're in a relationship like this try to fix it. It will be hard, but if they care about each other they'll be able to change their ways. If that doesn't work I hate to say it but you just have to drop them. No one should have to undergo that. It's a hard concept because we're taught certain things about a relationship, but if it doesn't make you happy is it really worth it? Relationships are suppose to lift you up, that person is supposed to give you that extra boost, and if they don't do that then it's not worth it. Learn the difference between a healthy and an unhealthy relationship, please. You always have another choice, make the right one.
