Only a tear in your eye,
just rejected and forgotten.
But to not accept it, who
am I?
I let you go at first,
for you were a selfish a*s.
So I hurt you by saving myself...?
I realized I just can't let go.
Of course, it's all my fault,
because you acted like
a child, and I wasn't there.
And I need you.
My mind and body is addicted to you.
I have withdrawls. I sweat and shake
when you're not close. And even when
I can't touch you, for you're not mine,
I need you all the more.
All too quickly, the day faded.
I should have made it last,
for now you've slipped away.
I would have made you smile,
and carefully held your hand.
I've been dead for a while,
time floating away on grains of sand.
I would have cherished every word,
and taken no touch for granted.
We would love every bird, and
all our hurt, trample.
I would have kissed you one more time,
and gently held you close.
So here I am with this sad rhyme,
chasing after my next dose.
But you see this joy end,
for I didn't see it coming.
We were just around the river bend,
and out of time, running.
My supply was cut off.
I paid a priceless price for your heroin,
and look where I am now.
A shadow, surviving off of nothing but thin air
and the chance of getting another dose.
