My day off after that was filled with dreams and thoughts of you.
What have you done?
You're like a drug and me the addict.
I've become addicted to you.
I should've gotten your number.
Maybe it would've helped with the withdrawals I'm having right now.
I'm at work,
But you're not here.
It's past the time you usually come.
Are you okay?
I'm worried.
Please be okay.
I rub the bruise on my eye.
My dad hit me harder than usual.
He was quite mad,
But my mother is alright.
That's all that matters.
Even though she hates me too.
I need your smile now,
More than ever...
But you're not here.
I can't help but look up excitedly everytime the door opens.
And feel the sinking disappointment when it's not you.
The hours pass by and it's almost night.
My day wasn't good,
I seriously need you now.
I continue till we close,
My mind plagued with thoughts of you.
Where are you?
I go to the back real quick to restock for my boss.
I hear the door open as I go into the closet,
But by now I've given up.
I don't turn back.
I restock and when I come out my boss is locking up.
I get my coat to leave,
But my boss comes to me handing a note.
"Someone left this for you"
I stare at him,
Confused.
Then I look at the note.
My eyes widen at what I see
And excitement fills my body.
I feel myself start to tremble.
I got my rush.
I smile the whole time as I get ready to leave.
I tell my boss good-bye as I leave through the back.
I walk to my home,
My worries of what is awaiting me at home, vanishes as I stare at the note.
Who knew a phone number could make me happier than anything?
I hold it close to my heart as I enter my house,
I run up the steps ignoring the shouts.
I go to my room, throw myself on the bed and stare at the number.
Your number.
I quickly put it into my phone.
Finally, I have a way to get my daily dose of my greatest addiction.
I get ready to go to bed.
I lay there in the dark, thinking of you.
As I drift off to sleep I can't help but think.
Fuck, I've become so addicted to you.
