darling, you were bittersweet
like a delicate butterfly perched upon a cactus

the sound of your voice pierced like daggers, but then whispered sweet nothings in my ear

i could get lost in your eyes, but they saved me time and time again

the smell of you was sweeter than chocolate, but left me crying into your sweaters at 3am

you entered my life as a hurricane, but left as just a whisper of wind along the trees

because even though you were the lethal drug in my veins, you were the only thing that kept my heart beating
