My DOC... drug of choice Our friendship was awesome at first at least Before you became that monster that beast You said we would not love anyone else For you could teach me how to not love myself Then we could do anything for now nothing mattered.   You took my good life and we watched it slowly shatter. At first I dumped other souls at my feet, gambling daily if I’d survive in the forever after gorging heat.   Soon those thoughts too got all left behind as we bonded and I paid you one mind strip at a time I forget when you became the boss and I just a number.  But when  apart for too long I cried out for your thunder My features were molding to how I was feeling.   You were the only friend who found me appealing. During our times together we didn’t laugh but I cried I got a degree on how good I could lie Over the years I froze in the sun and watched the clanking of bars and you  made me believe that it was all in the stars. But now I am smelly and shaky and feeling like **** If you don’t show up soon I may as well quit Songs and smells are doing their best to help you to stay I’ve locked my door to help me keep you at bay Now my mind is made up - I’m going to find me again What was I thinking you were never a friend Your deceitful kind will never get me to bow For starting this second I am the boss of me now -written by- Leilani Gesch April 16, 2018
