Pain

Love is poison
But that won't stop me
Give me more
Give it all
It's the drug most addicting
Some have alcohol
Some smoke
Some shoot up
Others get their fix different ways
Me,
I make myself fall in love
Waiting for them to push me off the cliff
Free fall downward
Letting the world watch
As I cause myself pain
The looks to be getting closer
But I never quite reach it
But then I do
And I hit the ground
Hard
I look around
And I stop looking
When I fall into someone else's arms
Then the process is repeated
Endless loop
And I crave everything
The love
Their arms
Walking on my own
Finding the edge of the cliff
Getting violently pushed off
The free fall that would lead to death
The hard hit on the rough ground
And the pain that follows
I crave every detail
And I wasn't given pain last time
He was nice
But I hate it
I want pain
Physical isn't cutting it
I need the emotional fall
The break
The sounds of emotions instead of bones
Cracking
Like he gave me a parachute
And nudged me off my cliff
I'm not hurt
So now I'm confused
Now there's just tiny dull knifes
Picking at my brain trying to figure out
What just happened
And all that is discovered
Is there is something missing
And I'm craving
Pain
