The greatest time
of life
were the ephemeral days
with you.
The seventh layer
of poison
You distract me
from the world.
You've left me
tongue tied
Doesn't mean
I won't come back again.

Somebody used all 5 words!
Most striking lines for me: "The seventh layer of poison/You distract me from the world." There's something so "strong" about this--probably the seventh layer of poison.
"Doesn't mean I won't come back again." Liked the ending.
Very cool poem--good luck in the contest.
