Toxic

Why would I run for something destructive, 

when it was you,

who spread out the poison?

How could I manage 

this twisted attempt 

to console myself, 

when it was you 

who pushed me over the edge?

Time and again.

I reach for the embers and 

press them to my lips, 

I might as well admit

I am hopelessly addicted...

Superbly written, capturing the hopelessness, despair and pointlessness of our actions, which could never have changed a drawn out and painful outcome. A nice touch with the last line, admitting that we can be at fault too, for loving someone who doesn't reciprocate that love the way we need.
