Untitled

As each day goes by, she makes me sicker and sicker,
I’m trying my hardest to get it together,
Yet no matter what I try I can’t get rid of her.
	
I’ve been trying to explain this to people but it’s as if no one is listening,
I’ve always been a bright star continuously glistening,

But that light is dimming inside of me. 
	
I want to scream,
I can no longer plead,
You see she feeds off of her own greed,
Although I’m relentlessly telling her she’s not what I need,
Although I’m constantly screaming at her to leave,
She ignores me and internally I bleed,
It’s because off of me is how she feeds,
So realistically getting rid of her isn’t guaranteed,
But I continue to fight in hopes that I’ll succeed,
Can I get an amen if you agree?
