Yo que estaba enamorado y escribía cosas bellas(bis)
De un amor que era veneno y corría por mis venas (bis)
Le cantaba mil canciones le escribía mis poemas(bis)
Pero nunca me dio alivio para yo curar mis penas(bis)

Overall Meaning

In Nelson Henriquez's song "Veneno", the lyrics express the pain and struggle of being in love with someone who is toxic and harmful despite having strong feelings for them. The singer describes how they were once in love and wrote beautiful things about their love but realized that it was actually poison that was running through their veins. Despite trying to express their love through singing and poetry, it did not provide any relief and did not help them heal from the pain caused by this toxic love.

The repetition of the lines "Yo que estaba enamorado y escribía cosas bellas" and "De un amor que era veneno y corría por mis venas" emphasize the contrast between the beauty of the love they thought they had versus the reality of the toxicity that was present. The use of "veneno", meaning poison, reinforces the idea that this love was harmful and toxic.

Overall, "Veneno" is a powerful and emotional song that depicts the pain and struggle of dealing with a toxic love that is hard to let go of.
