I’ve become addicted
To your pathetic cries for help,
Your stupid cupid blunders.
I learned after the first time
That your pain
And my patience
Are the perfect combination for disaster.

      G,
Your tears spill out into my soul
And I love every drop of pain
You bring me.
ADDICTED!
I’ve become your crying crackwhore,
Pining prostitute for pain.
You hooked me
From your very first display
Of anger,
Your first raging roar
Against the cruelties of their kind,
And soon I found myself engulfed-
And yet I find your cries repulsive,
Every word
Every tear
Every shudder that you give me
A mere reflection of the power
I have given up to you.
How pathetic,
To be so blind
Before a flame that burns so bright
And sacrifice
Your one chance for salvation;
Just let it burn, let it flicker
And grow weaker
And disappear
Until all we both have left
Is a memory-whisp of smoke.
So give me more,
Fill me more
With your absurd attempts
To love me by hurting me.
Let me feel your chill again;
Perhaps I’ll fade away with you.
