Alexis Y. Poet Free verse

Drug

I have convinced myself that you love me
But I  know in reality  you don't even know me
You're like a drug that I  can't  shake
I put myself  in my own personal  rehab
All I have to do is hear your voice and I  relapse 
Please walk away and let me  be
You know that I can't  resist  your charm
Why must you torment  me  with fake  affection?
Just know one day I will fall madly in love with  me,
And I will  be able to resist your poisonous  touch
I just hope that you are not the death of  me,
Before I discover  my self worth





Author's  Note: This write is pure  fiction.  I just went where my muse took me.
