I Long for my Poison

Garnish my soul. Awaken my sensibilities; for I’m acidic with 
Tears: I long for my poison. Thus awash my soul in glory; for
My chantress, my sulfur; and my light, the bed of my razor.
Thus the opera, a tragic tale. But emoted song, a woman’s
Dream; and vibrant prose, a woman’s passion. Thus the ember,
A flaming idol; and thus the rapture, a touch of death. But
Inmost love, a skyward fall; and such fatigue, the art of lust.
Thus the poison, my sordid justice.  

Garnish my soul. Awaken my sensibilities; for I’m acidic with
Tears: I long for my poison. Thus the future, the love of taint;
For my beloved, a fated scar. But feral love, alive with blight;
And florid pain, the lure of doves. Thus the fulcrum, akin to
Fiction. Hence the spirit, a ballad fable. But deep enlove, the
Stain of lust; and graven wounds, the ache of dreams.

You haven't butchered it, Faith. You have captured its essence. We often find ourselves participating in our own sadness, if only for the hint of satisfaction. Thus, you're right on.
