young venom


they say that young snakes are much more dangerous than adult ones

this being because they are so young they haven’t learned how to control how much venom they release when they bite

maybe that’s why young love is so potent

maybe thats why it feels like the world really is ending when you lose someone you love

because when you love someone
you love with every fiber of your being and put
your all into them

and when they leave
they take all of you with them
leaving nothing left of you
