I always thought, what am I without You? But what am I with you? A soul-less body. You were to build me up, but instead You were a wrecking ball, rummaging through the walls of my life, leaving me broken down. Every kiss, a pint of venom. Every word, an injection of poison. How could I have not seen? Every word a lie. Until you spoke the truth, Stung like a bee. Hurt like a stampede. And as I lay my head a rest, You probably out being happy while I am a mess. You were my downfall. You were my favourite mistake. A nightmare, disguised as a daydream
