a deadly addiction

you are poison, but i can't get away from you, so I am slowly dying, my addiction pulling me into the ocean (no it's not the ocean, it's my grave, but you don't even care to know the difference.) I want to tattoo your skin with the color of my eyes (you always insist I get colored contacts, because no one likes a girl who's eyes match the sky.) and the logo of my favorite band. (the band that held me while I cried about you and the way you hated me and the way I would kill to kiss you.) you are poison and I am addicted. I can't stop you from slowly killing me, just promise me you won't come to my funeral.
