You were everything to me.
I held my future to you
And you enveloped it in the most loving of grasps
I finally felt what it meant to matter to someoneWhat we had was real and deep
We hurt together
Over similar pasts
We built a love together
On hopes of a better future
Two fractured beings collided and melding together
As a whole
I thought we would be whole together foreverBut I remember how you changed
Suddenly, you didn't want to talk anymore
You grew paranoid
Angry, hateful
You created fights out of nothing
You never slept, you never ateI realized you weren't mine anymore
We were no longer whole
Because you'd been swallowed by what you believed would numb you of your pain
When I didn't even know you'd become distracted by it
I wish you'd told me
Maybe you'd still be here todayMaybe then I wouldn't have seen you
Take your last hit
Of that 'medicine' for your pain
To watch you lose yourself
Lose your lifeHas left me undone
I will always have that pain now
