The Makeover-Shots
The Makeover- Shots
You take one shot
And I miss you
I know you're gone
But I still wanna kiss you
You've made yourself a monster
Both you and me you scar
Your eyes are dimly lit
But behind shines who you are
Who you used to be
The part that misses me
(Pre Edit: January 17, 2015)
One shot.
One decision.
Never to be seen again.
Late night kisses
And sweet nothings
Long gone
To yellowed eyes
And an emptied heart.
Your monster in the making
Slowly made its way
To the surface
And only in your dimly-lit
Blood-shot eyes
Is a near gone image
Of who used to lie behind
The addiction's pry.
The part that still loved
Me.
