Venom
The club is my family, my life,
And nothing else mattered to me growing up.
I didn’t want a girl or an old lady to distract me,
I just wanted to have fun and be the best Road Captain,
To make my club proud, but more importantly, my Uncle proud,
And ensure he doesn’t regret choosing me to take his place.
But everywhere I looked, she was there,
Distracting me.
My sister’s best friend,
The bane of my existence.
She never spoke to me, always acting shifty,
Like a patch chaser using my sister to gain a brother’s attention.
I was mean to her every chance I got,
Hoping she’d ditch my sister and leave my club alone,
Leave me alone.
She didn’t, though; if anything, she held on tighter,
And I started to see a new light in her.
She changed, became darker,
And I make it my sole responsibility to find out why,
Only to realize I wanted her,
To know I was in love with her.
But she’s closed off, the crush I didn’t realize she had gone,
And I know I have a fight on my hands to make her mine,
A fight I’m going to win, one way or another.
Get ready, Kitten, I’m coming for you.

Growing up, he was supposed to just be my best friend’s brother,
Nothing more, nothing less,
But my heart didn’t listen to that logic.
I developed a crush that turned into love,
And every time I was in his vicinity, I became too shy to speak to him,
But he didn’t see me that way.
In his eyes, I was a menace, using his sister to get to him,
In his eyes, I was acting shifty and was a patch chaser.
Years I ignored his jabs, his insults,
Yet my crush never left, the love I held always in place,
Until I lost the most important person in my life.
I changed, the sweet, shy girl no longer in sight,
And the love I developed turned to hate.
I lost myself, too focused on my revenge for the person I lost,
While trying to follow in their footsteps,
Not expecting him to notice me slowly disappearing.
But he does, something clicks for him because suddenly,
Everywhere I am, he’s there,
Not willing to give up on the love I once held.
But that girl, she’s no longer around,
The revenge, the hate, is consuming, and I can’t be saved.
That doesn’t stop him from trying to save me, though….
