Know This, For Good

I miss my best friend
the one that became my lover first.
I miss the late phone calls
I lost so much sleep.
Promises I some how knew you'd 
not keep.

I miss my new family
The kids and your mom
   All gone.
I miss the greatest thing I knew.

Hungry though
my blades are gone,
I had my sister rid me of them.
Where did that idea come from?

If only you knew what i'd give
If only you'd come back
    to me, my dearest.
Stick around, you don't have to 
know I will always want you.
I wish you knew I would love you 
as 
my old best friend.

Webs i've weaved, nothing but what 
i've done and lost
     stick and bleed.
This was never an intention.

Repulsive
Bloody
Craving
Repugnant
Hatred
It flows in my system, inside my 
skin.

I want your taste back on my 
lips...to stay.
    I crave my old lover, need my best 
friend. I'll still beg when I'm dead.
