Addiction

Why have you plagued me?
Why have you latched on my soul not ready to leave?
What's my offense?
Why have you fought my desires to do away with you?
Why have you cried me to sleep?
Why have you drained me? 
Why have you over stayed your welcome?
Why have you driven important people out of my life?
Why? (X3)
I ask again why?
Why have you decided to mess with my fragile emotions?
You've wounded my heart
You've tortured my body
You've battered my vision
I tried to dialogue with you
But when I thought you agreed
You came back like you never left
You came in stronger than you have ever been
You beat me to it
I gave up
I then remembered that even in defeat
My anchor ? isn't on you
It's on Him
I soon got strength to fight back
I fought really hard this time
I stayed strong
Until I found myself slipping back into your grip
I tried everything I could but couldn't hold any longer
I found myself almost giving up again
I found my lost wing to fly
But it was broken
How do I fix you?
How do I fly out of this mess?
When did I break my wings without realising it?
Now I'm left to fight this fight
I thought to myself it's inconsequential fighting you again  
I lost faith
I lost hope
What remained
Was a dashed soul
Killed my emotions
To strive whole
I soon became
A cold heart
Dead to feelings
Dead to pains
Feeling numb
I cared less
Well it's life I stressed more
Stress got me bickered 
From my drowning thoughts.
I'm coming for you
To put an end to you
I've gotten all I need
To destroy you
I won't take L's this time around
You are free "He said to me"
I regained my stance
My strength came from a higher power than I could fathom
His light lit in my darkness
Finally rays of hope 
I shouted,
I'm a winner, don't dare me
Thank you Jesus ????
You did this......
