Under Her Influence

I cannot feel,I can barely 
speak.
Comfortably numb,incredibly 
weak.
Her,the same.
Am I to blame?
A simple match catches flame 
and suddenly i hear my name.
That soft spoken tone.."don't 
let me be alone"..
That's what she said,eyes 
rolled back looking halfway 
dead.
We touch for a moment and
"Never"..i say.
Forever I'll stay.
My speech is impaired.
But,HEART.thats always there.
..its time for more.
She takes a few,I take few.
Days fly by,so fast its true.
And everything I do,its all for you..
I'm under your influence...
