A Lesson On Love

Im lost when i look in her eyes.
Because of the lack of time.
That goes by when im lost in those eyes.
Maybe thats why i cant sleep at night!
Becuase her face is seered in my mind!
I flash back to those days we were together. 
When you promised me forever!
Lies is all it was, and as time went by.
It built up like lie after lie.
Maybe thats why i sit and i think!
My mind on the brink!
Thats why i keep the bottles so far from the sink!
I keep this drug in this bowl.
For my soul isnt whole.
Its the only thing that helps me cope!
This joint that i roll!
And this dope that i smoke!
See what love does to you?
Feels like day by day you wont make it through.
The pain of the loss drives you to drugs and drink.
Just for that time your mind ceases to think.
So that you cant feel the pain.
And the only thing that feels good is the rain.
Your lost and alone and dont know what to do.
Dont trust anyone.
Especially those who say they love you to.
