you were a drug that swam into my blood stream
every dose of you i took in and absorbed willingly
i was addicted
day and night i let you in
i got used to you

you were a drug that took over me, over my body
but I liked it and I embraced you with open arms
i was tempted
day and night i gave in
you let me get used to you

you were a drug that i never stopped taking
but now it's you who stopped coming
not knowing what to do at all
how does someone
cope up with
withdrawal

if your love

was in the air

i wouldn't dare

to hold my breath

i'd breathe you in

to fill my lungs

i'd take you in

with no regret

i
know
how much
you love the rain,
maybe it's a way you
try to ease the pain; as
the rain pours, so do
your tears, that you
kept inside, for all
those years

i am not a dancer
but i can make words
dance at the tip of your tongue

i am not a singer
but i can make words
sing to the beat of your heart

i am not a painter
but i can make words
paint a scene from your dreams

i am just a mere writer
but i can make words
write their own stories
paint their own pictures
sing their own songs
and dance their own way

it's not regret that i feel
for the what ifs that
we could've  done
it's regret that i feel
for the whats that
had been done
×

guilt filled guts
and gut filled feelings
it was something
i was not proud doing
and i am tired of just
hiding and pretending
that i made no mistake
but i did,
and it's heartbreaking
now i don't want to make
the same mistake again
i'm not saying
i'd forget the past
instead, i'm saying
i'd learn from them
