Straight Line

Stephanie Alford

A passionate kiss

Laced with arsenic

With a twist of cyanide

A suicidal decadence

Shared between us

Pins prickling our skin

Bleeding ourselves out

But not completely dry

We cannot die yet

We must continue

In our journey

To withstand

Insurmountable pain

And now I know

I am no longer

Alone
