Loving An Addict

You were charming
Compassion and kind
Our love was as solid as a book bind
Something happened and I'll never know why
You changed into a monster 
I never knew could exist
Your hurtful words tore my soul
You lieing,cheating,thiefing  gangster
Drugs destroyed us,our love, our family
I was the fool for holding on to who I knew and not what you become.
But then I realized you killed a piece of me
I had to forgive you and let you go
To save myself from becoming an angry monster

Tough to say goodby to someone but you must respect someone before you can love them.
