Pulled away, but yet you drag me,
Deeper and lower you make me follow.
Tried and tested to keep my distance,
Yet without you I'm empty and hollow.
Intoxicating, enticing, your faint presence,
Is all I need, to forget my work and duty.
I attempt and endeavour, for ignorance,
Forgetting your prettiness and your beauty.
Breaking away, broke free now,
Away from you and your ghastly claws.
I won't forget how I was sucked in,
A maelstrom, a controlled chaos.
It was danger, I was the danger,
Yet there was thrill in living on edge.
But I know better, I'm above you now,
Old wounds lay which I will never dredge.
Oh, you're a part of me I wish there never was,
An old habit of mine which I could never break.
It was hard, retrieving myself from you,
But I had to do this, for my sake.
Dear bad habit, don't pull me down,
I climbed very high to get rid of you.
Your charm won't work on me now,
I'm miles away from the damage you do.
