Colts Neck, NJ

The blood runs through my veins still
You light up all the right areas of my head
You know exactly how to calm this frail body of mine
You forgive all I’ve done
And I’m sorry
I’m sorry for always dragging you down
I’ll make up for it
In all ways
In every way
I’ll take the blame for it all
This bruise on my face
The color of my hair
The shaking in my hands
The drugs
The drunken nights
The one night stands
The empty hotel rooms
All of it
I can’t take back
But, I’ll love you the same
Every time.
Just not in the way you want me to.
