You've poisoned my once favorite songs as I sing the words I can only taste your mouth. As my music use to be my escape Now, it pulls me back under. I'm trying to swim with weights around my ankles, and waves that keep pushing me down. Where is the shore? As the lyrics play through my mind, my heart sinks to my stomach. The memories of us replace the rhythms, and my sad broken heart, replaces the happiness I use to feel.
