it wasn't until the sun rose
that I realized
just how much
I was in love with the moon

If you saw an x-ray of my heart,
I wonder where you'd even start.

I had to cut you off
not from my life
but from the way you use me,
as your drug
your medication
your therapist
your twelve-step program
because your process of healing,
has become your addiction
