Analysis of Toxic



Kiss, bite, and suck these are our regular things. Smack, choke and squeeze these are your things, toxic vibes it is never the same. You are hard to tame, ass up face in the pillows these are my ways. I am to blame long and deep strokes lead you to

Shame, legs slide open like curtains, your lips on mine contains our stories. If the walls could talk they would tell you about the nights of spontaneity. We are intoxicating to each other

But we should stay away from one another, my pillows are left with your moaning and your body are leave with my hickies of all of my exploring. T ime to go we should be O ver each other by now X is the example of what shouldn’t have happen.

I can’t sit around no more cause it hurts  too much

You and I  C are but Thats not good enough to be ourselfs and be true with you life seems unbearable and that’s why we are Toxic

About this poem

It’s about love you know it’s seasonal. But you can not get enough of it you want to get rid of it but you can’t; because of how it makes you feel within the moments you’re with each other it’s neither good nor bad it’s just what it is Toxic… it’s breathing taking but captivating in away that you can’t leave it alone.

Odane Griffiths

I am Odane Griffiths, I am 24 years old. I was born in Jamaica but have been resided in Kelowna since I was 13 years old majority of my teenager years have spent in beautiful British Columbia. I like the city a lot and it has some amazing views and hiking trails. I have been writing poetry since I was little but never took it seriously I do not write every day but I would like to make it a every day hobby that I cater to help increase my writing abilities. I enjoy writing poetry and expressing my thoughts on a piece of paper; so it can paint a picture for my audience whom is reading and can feeling my emotions behind my words. I recently started a poetry page on Instagram Called Expressions_Through_Poetry my goal is to write as much poetry to use my platform to help people cope and they can use my words as an outlet to express love and respect to their friends, family and loved ones. more…
