You're my addiction
my guilty pleasure
everything you are
is a treasure

I tell myself
to let you go
but the urge
to see you
overgrows

You're the only one
who makes my heart pump
And you're the only one
who can make it stop

All I see
is risk after risk
but what is life
without a little
danger?
After all,
you're no stranger

His eyes,
brown
pools of chocolate
my hands reach to clasp
the gift he has given:
a locket

His hair,
midnight
like a raven's wing
on my hand
his promise:
a ring

His skin,
tan
like the sand on the beach
a badge held in my hands
reminding
he is out of reach

On the table
a note lay
tears fell
dropped to the note
smudging the lines
of which they wrote

He was gone
out of reach
lost in the storm

I felt cold now
he was the one
keeping me warm

It happened again tonight.
The demons came back
and they hit right where it hurts.
I feel so weak.
What is wrong with me?

My body burns
it tells me things
eat, eat, eat
it says

The hunger is overwhelming
my throat is on fire
'food will come soon,'
he tells me
liar liar liar

My stomach grumbles
I let out a groan of pain
he grabs a lighter and
sets the stove aflame

I watch as he cooks
mouth watering, I see
he sets out the plates
one for me
one for his date

But it is not for me
he sets it on the table
his date digs in
so does he
he lied, it is not for me
liar liar liar

He looks down at me
takes in my pleading face
he winks and chucks a chicken leg
'don't tell Trace'
he says

I look at the chicken
all cooked and sweet
but then I see the dirt and hair
laying upon the chicken
that's not good to eat

I look upon my paws
why can't I be fed like them?
I may be an animal,
but they are being rational

Why want a dog,
when you cannot feed them?
why call me family,
when you do not treat me like one?

Their words
****** and harsh

Their lips
soft and pouted

How can such
***** words
fall from such a
beautiful mouth?

Their eyes
fierce and cruel

Their mouth
pulled to a scowl

How can such
gorgeous green eyes
be so horrifyingly
ruthless?
