I dream of you
in black and blue
and wonder of all
the damage we could do.
You tease and prod me
with your lips
"Be still, be bold"
You whisper with
a certain chill of danger
that stunts my heart.
We're fire on fire
and in each kiss
these ambers fly higher
this blaze burns louder
Yet in the shadows
There will be
You and I
sawying gently
in front of the fire.

Many artists claim that there is no need to explain their work. There is beauty in leaving it to the viewers, who can decifier it for their own meaning. Yet there is something you all must understand. Toxic relationships are not a trend. They are painful and just as described, toxic. Do not put yourself in dangerous situations just for the thrill. Or listen to others who claim it's been the best mistake of their life. This poem is not to romanticize heartbreak or to say that toxic relationships are simply only full of pain. Take from this poem what you want but do not say that I wish for you to be in toxic relationships. I wish for all of you peace and joy and happiness. However, I do believe there is beauty in heartbreak. 😘
