Letting go

I should have stopped at a simple hello
a wounded text that has now scarred me for life
You did everything right
like u knew about my broken heart

what a perfect stranger I thought...

I attached myself to a doorway
One that lead me straight to you
I knew I should have stopped it
but now u became a face

"Youre touch was now a drug to me, my own personal brand of heroiin.."

I had heard that line before
an inprint in my head
from a movie I once thought 
was ecstasy... 

Now everytime I close my eyes I think of you

your arms wrapped around me like a blanket
your body stitched to mine
your needle sharp 
and your voice that whispers sweet nothing in my ear

Tell me lies baby I know this is the last time

You had me 
I was yours
Truly
Now I must let you go...... 
I
