I still taste you against my tongue. Like candy that won't go away.  I still feel your hands against my skin. Like a dog that stays leaned against your side at night. But the thing is, the candy is bitter and causes vile to rise up my throat. The dog is vicious and leaves scars against my skin. Your kind smile and sweet words dig into my heart leaving anchors to hold me captive. I was told that you are toxic. A poison that will eat me alive slowly. I'm a victim to a slowly acting poison unaware of the oh so close danger. I'm addicted to you like an addict is to crack.  The only thing is just like an addict I want the happiness and carefree feeling the drug gives me.  But we both know that happiness will kill us in the end.
