One Last Taste

You used to hold me tight

Always telling me to stay in the light

Then things changed

You somehow turned deranged

I never stood a chance

Never once taking a proper stance

You swore to never hurt me

Only to succeed in murdering me

Even as we faded away

I found myself begging you to stay

We were perfection

Never once showing negative affection

But you wanted something I couldn't give

A glass of wine that paved the way

All it took was a sip

Then you started to trip

You screamed it was my fault

That it was my fault we were in this occult

Never once stopping to think

'Maybe I didn't need another drink'
