Snake's sly venom seeps into my veins;

Hairs quickly stand on the back of my spine.

It feels like I'm paralyzed from the pain;

This continues to happen time after time.

 

But thoughts are the actual murderers;

They have no remorse slowly killing me.

They steal my happiness like burglars,

And I used to think thoughts set someone free.

 

I try to remove them but they're infinite.

Just one shot is all that it will take;

The clock ticks with every passing minute,

But then I realize what is at stake.

 

And the reason all of these feelings brew,

are absolutely because of you.

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)

"So I began to think maybe it was true that when you are married and had children it was like being brainwashed, and afterwards you went about as numb as a slave in a totalitarian state." - Sylvia Plat, The Bell Jar

This sonnet is so intriguing; you were able to fit so much into just 14 lines and that takes skill. Thank you for sharing this poem :D
