My addiction


You were my drug Seven years of going back to get my fix Wanting it everyday When I wouldn't get my fix I would go crazy I start to shake and look around to see where I could get you Txting and sending you pics To meeting up without anyone knowing To being used I didn't care if I got hurt I didn't care if I got used I didn't care who I hurt You were my drug My addiction few with every year that passed I was clean for 2 years I went cold turkey But then you came back I tried not to crave you I tried to avoid you But no matter where I went there you where Even at my front door And then I got a taste I got hooked I wanted you more and more Then you left I was addicted but did not react I found distractions Then you texted I went to meet up I wanted you But not like I usto It was more of a comfort not an addiction We hooked up one more time I felt free I got my last hit My last high My addiction to you finally broke I'm no longer addicted There will be a part of me that would want to get my fix But I won't cave in This new year is my year to finally let go of my addiction

My work goes with the beat of how I feel to when I remember a memory I want to talk about it to random thoughts
