I lie in the darkness
waiting for it to end
tears of blood flowing from my veins
your lies consumed me
in a world I can't escape
the shadows of my past
dance around like flames
your touch like acid
burning through my skin
your venom like dirt
itching at my veins
you cause my pain
and I will never be the same
your lips against mine
unwillingly over time
your presence makes me itch
but you haunt me
as time begins to tick
I'll be free of you soon
as the sheets are stained red
your wickedness will end

hmm... an... interesting take on the prompt. I liked it though... deep, raw... emotion. Very beautiful.
Good job and best of luck in the contest.
