Hollow Addiction

Still waiting desperately

pleading

that you would release my love

let me be cast away

but the power you hold

Sits in the palm of your hands

It shackles any chance I could have at a safe haven

A place to breathe

these wounds i bare are too distinctive

the crippling thought of you in my head shakes the earth

around me my bones shutter

my conscious eats itself alive

The addictive memory laced in my veins

It purges my self worth

Withdrawals of the feeling

but the deepest most wretched thing

This is an after thought

I do not exist without this feeling
