Evil Pill Poem by Victoria Gauci

I take this medicine, this evil pill,
I do not swallow it at my will,

Bitter sour my tooth does tell,
Deep my heart does not feel well,

Like daggers indent to my heart,
Never thought we'd grow apart,

Nerves are raw and still I feel,
Something has to help us heal,

Truth becomes a rotten apple,
For it led us to this battle,

Forgive me not and I dare say,
This could go now either way,

Is there not some shred of love?
Intervention sent from above?

I fear that we shall only grow,
Apart from this point rather slow,

In my soul I've held you there,
With so much love for us to share,

Condemn me not to Hell's hot fury,
Please forgive, and then do hurry,

Days are gone and you have been,
My soulmate and my closest friend,

Do not let the past take hold,
If I dare and be so bold,

Words are words and only that,
All friends have some kind of spat,

Find a way to overcome,
Moving forward friends as one.

Mistakes are made by everyone.
