Blackness
It kills
a stain

you try to remove

Still it lingers
like the taste in your mouth
A scent that won't fade
A touch that burns
Even when you're alone

Why are you here?
When I am alone
Seeping into blackness
Chilled to the bone

still as death
a breathless whisper
Your touch, it kills
taints me
stains me

With your poison.
