I think I got addicted to the way you looked at me;
like I was your most prized possession
I was entranced by the way your lips felt against mine,
it is a taste I often crave
sometimes, I savor the tears that streak down my face...
they remind me of how it felt to be held by you
It has not been easy;
there are days when I feel like the aching of my heart will grow so loud
it will swallow me whole
but there are days when the hurt subsides, and I can finally think
clearly again
I know you aren't good for me,
but ever since the day you left I have not stopped longing for your presence
*I guess I am still learning how to let you go
