Jack
You’ve already taken,
all that I had.
My ambition, my drive,
even my dreams have turned bad.
I can’t keep doing this,
you're killing me ya know.
It took a long time to realize,
I was out of control.
I thought you were helping,
at first it was fun.
You helped me relax,
but I have to be done.
Some days I don’t miss you,
and others it’s hell.
I wish I could forget you,
but I miss your smell.
How can you be so seductive,
and dangerous too?
And why don’t I seem normal,
unless I have you?
Today is bad,
I need you I think.
My brain won’t shut up,
and sanity’s on the brink.
You intoxicate me,
you literally do.
I’m wasting away though,
and that’s literal too.
So please stay away,
and get out of my head.
Let me live my life,
without so much dread.
Today’s a bad day,
I’ll try to be strong.
I think I can do it,
but I don’t know for how long.
Jack won....
