Short Relapsing Poems

Broken promises
Dagger through the heart
Silent heaving sobs
Why did it start?

Healing wounds
Comforting words
Relapsing Pain as
Photos return.

Haunting love
Tainting its name
Dagger through the heart
Overwhelming shame....

Cinnamon and smoke;
The cologne I taste  
all over your neck 
it swims in my mind;
Intoxicating;

Phantom smells 
just out of reach, 
Aromatics;
I’m relapsing; 

Ravenous 
withdrawal 
consumes me 

I drown 
inside 

you....

Relapsing Vacation

They say change of air be good
They don’t quite know about me

Thought to catch sunrise at ridge
Then, what if its just like any other

Thought to take a stroll on beach
Gosh, what if tide is always high

Thought will pick a few souvenirs
Gee, wonder where to keep them all

Thought will buy gifts for some
And, what about others, I can’t

They say vacation will be relaxing
They don’t quite know about me...

I play with razors
 I watch it bleed
 I help it scar
 I keep it close,
 So you might never know
I'm relapsing again,
 Hold on tight 
You’ll regret that night
 But anyways,
Back to that
Better hold on tight
That’s  right,
Hold on tight
I’m relapsing tonight
Yeah, it’s so cute
It’s so cute,
 When you pretend to care
It breaks my heart every time
You’re a good actor
But I’m better
It’s so cute,
It cuts like a knife
Sew it up tight
Take a deep breath,
I’m relapsing tonight...
