"This headache,

it's throbbing,

it can't stop.


I want to stop breathing,

you held me,

held my throat into your palm.


You took my words,

and twisted them around.


Look what you did to me,

you're laughing?

laughing like a maniac,

it won't get you anywhere.


I will defeat this,

what's inside of me,

my demons.


They won't swallow me whole like you did,

you took me into your lungs,

threw out that gasp of air.


I gasp every nightmare I have now,

you,

you,

YOU,

flashing inside my nights,

flickering.


Fading,

fading away into those words,

the words you formed me with.


The words continue,

the ones I had used to make you happy,

but instead,

you're a monster!


Twisting them around,

making it your own,

in reality,

this isn't over so soon,

not just yet.


I can fight,

but why should I fight against you?

you toyed with me,

mentally,

physically,

emotionally.


You tour out my heart,

when I gave you my last hope to reality,

to my dreams of satisfaction.


I thought I'd have those special moments,

that only true lovers give.


The price of it all,

was for me to get addicted,

addicted to the unforgettable things.


I wish,

I just wish I could redo,

and retake that path way.


I should've seen it coming,

just later in my time.


Nothing soon.


Just fucking late,

like your taste of twisted reality.


Poison,

wouldn't even kill you.


You are the poison,

but,

maybe I'm the cure."
