Corrosive

somewhere along the way I took a wrong turn

but then again

any turn I took would’ve been wrong

thoughts of you prove corrosive

eating away, eroding cerebral tissue

acid leaks from my eyes

burning, blurring vision

but then again

the rain doesn’t help either

so much love given

so much

taken

that my heart has grown anemic

it doesn’t have to be the end of the world

but then again

…

is it?

    Wonderful. There really is so much truth to some kinds of love that just eat through a person. You described it perfectly.
