Poem Title:
Poem
Its not hard to see why I need you so much Its obvious to me why i crave your touch When i first met you, I was untainted and free I had no idea how to even be me As long as I can remember I just wanted that need The kind of love that's unstoppable, the kind that you feed You became a part of me, the air inside my chest You snuck into my mind and I could no longer rest You filled me with confidence, deep in my soul After you, there was no longer a giant hole We became one instantly, to never be apart I was a teen and you had stolen my heart You made the whole world mold to my vision How was i to know it was a head on collision? Blindsighted, you tricked me with your lies You sold me happiness but what i got was cries It wasn't long before you demanded all of my time You began to consume me, forced me to crime Ill never forget the day I realized you had changed You no longer filled my soul, you just rearranged Your grasp was so tight I couldn't let go So once again,I fell deeper, to our all time low You gave me a way to get back to that high All i had to do was tie off and try It was like the beginning but it didn't last long I had found an answer, but the answer was wrong Thats when it happened, you slowly took it all Any piece that was left of me, away it would fall Your love turned into a controlling mess Where you used to give me more, i now had less You took my smiles and replaced them with fear You had my life, i could no longer steer People left my side because you were there They disappeared, they no longer cared Alone i was reaching out and there was only you So once again, you had to pull me through Further and further i fell inside myself to die It was so dark i could barely even try The weight holding me down was what pulled me thru How could i ever live without you? Desperation wasn't enough. I now had a need You tangled yourself in me like some sort of weed
