I thought

I was wrong

Because I missed your lips

More than coffee

In the morning

Your touch was cocaine

And I was still addicted

I missed your high

Thinking about you

With another love

Was worse than withdrawl

It was cyanide

In my veins

I needed you

But as I opened the door

To your demons again

I welcomed a stranger

Back into my home

And you were a sledgehammer

You were too broken

You were a toxin

You have overstayed your welcome

In my bloodstream

And that is why

You can not

Be my overnight guest

You may not linger

In my stairwell

Or smoke

In my corridors

I need rehab

I need sleep

You taste bitter now,

Old friend.

And to be honest,

I don't even like

Nicotine

Anymore
