You are the sun that warms my heart,
But also the flame that scars my skin,
Your venomous words take my soul apart,
Yet, your contagious smile heals me within,
You infect me like a disease, disrupting my mind,
Alas! You are the paradox that I can't solve,
Still, I look for the cure in you that I mightn't find.
Because you are the only mystery I love.
