Emotions


All these chances I've given you, and

All those times you had me regret it 

But then I remember our times, our smiles, our jokes and all the lovey dovey things we did 

It comes in the way of hating you

It confuses my mind into loving you 

It drives me crazy in the night 

And thinking during the day, for months

I know I need to forget you 

But, 

The fact of knowing I'll lose you hurts me 

I know I didn't do anything

I know it was you all along

You were the poison that nearly killed me 

You were the poison that killed us
