TOXIC

RARE

In the shadows of love, a darkness creeps,

A toxic relationship, where the heart weeps.

Bound by chains of deceit and lies,

It's a tangled web, where hope dies.

In the beginning, it felt like a dream,

But soon turned sour, like a poison stream.

Words that cut like knives, actions that bruise,

Leaving scars that never truly lose.

In the silence of the night, the tears flow,

As the toxicity seeps, a relentless woe.

A rollercoaster of emotions, up and down,

Leaving the heart shattered, on shaky ground.

Yet amidst the pain, a glimmer of light,

A realization dawns, shining bright.

For in the darkness, there lies a choice,

To break free from the toxicity's voice.

With courage as a guide, the heart finds strength,

To untangle the web, to go to any length.

To walk away from what no longer serves,

And embrace the love that truly deserves.

For in the end, a toxic relationship may fade,

But the lessons learned, they never evade.

They teach the heart to value itself,

And find love in its truest wealth.
