What destroys you the most?
The smoke in my lungs?
The ***** in my hair?
The alcohol in my veins?
The loveless love i perform with any pretty face that gives me a second glance?
I could tell you a million reasons why you should not love me.

I broke down that night.
I screamed the demons out that were plaguing my soul.
Forced the tears i have been holding back.
And you came to me.
I told you i was sad.
You told me you was sad, too.

How did i not notice?
Anti-depressants.
You are a better actor than i.

You embraced me and the screaming haulted.
You told me you loved me.
After i could tell you a million reasons not too.
Now i wept softly.
I wept for us both.

Like mother, like daughter.
