Dark Heroin

Shh...He pressed her fingers on my lips and said 
"close it".

He became those close four walls,

She became my claustrophobia,

Shh...he could tell you what I wanted,
But she cannot tell I can define it,

He told me that I would never be loved,

She showed me that she was too much for me to touch,

He kicked me deeply into the back to poison my spine,

Shh... he told me never to tell,
Shh...she regrets being with me,

We never were,
We never will,
We will never,
We will never,

She...feels sorry for lonely me,
He...just wants to feel me,

I will never find anyone like,
She,
He,
Watched my curse spread through my veins,

She,
Watched it eat out my heart,

In the present,

They stand staring me down,
With deep tunneled eyes,

Daring,
Me,
To blossom
