never be the same

From the day we met,
You scared me.
You weren't scary in a way that
You were outright terrifying,
You were scary in a way that
I feared screwing up in front of you.

I was high on success I gained
Through the work I did,
But then when I crashed,
I hit the bottom and met you,
And something in me
Was hooked on you,
All of you.

The feeling was gradual,
And it was addictive.
You were on my mind,
You coursed through my veins,
And I let you stay there.
I loved the feeling you gave me,
And you became a drug to me.

Even as the side effects still linger,
And the addiction isn't as present,
One thing still persists when it
Comes to you, my dear:
The second that I met you,
Everything changed.
And with just one hit of you,
I knew I'd never be the same.
