Recovery

I admit I fell for you
Again
In a place so far away
I could ignore the past and present
Just to live in the moment,
But it cost me months
And maybe years of recovery

You revel in giving me check ups
To make sure I get my monthly dose
Of you
So your memory won't fade for me
And I'll fall for tricks
I've been spotting for years now
But still fall anyways

I ignore how much the needle stings,
How I never dare do the same to you,
Because I know it hurts
And these check ups make me more sick
Than I was before

I'm sorry.
I shouldn't apologize for cutting off
A manipulative character but I will anyways,
I can't handle these appointments anymore,
So the next time you call
I know you'll be enraged to find
Your call can not be completed as dialed
Because you and your mind games
Are blocked out of my life

I hope some day you can admit to me
Or yourself
And those around you
Of everything you did
And how wrong it was,
Because I fear it may never happen

In the meantime maybe you should
Take some time off to recover too,
As far away from me
As I am from you
