When did I lose my
innocence?
Was it when I let
the tab melt and
dissolve on my tongue
as my face went
numb?
Was it when I let
the water bubble
pulled out the bowl
and inhaled?
Or was it when
I rolled up my
first dollar bill?
It might've been you.
When you held me
down and ignored
my no's.
What ever it
is, I still smiled
when I met
you.
Now with alcohol
staining my tongue
and nicotine
rotting in my
teeth, your name
still lives perfectly
in my mouth.
I don't know
what's doing the
worst damage.
You?
Or all these drugs?
All of your toxicity
burning my lips.
Pills churning my stomach.
You are still there.
No matter
what stranger
I kiss
you are
still there.
I've begun to
think, you've
taken my all
and still
unsatisfied
you had to poison
my body.
burn and
monitor my
mouth. watching
to see if I'd
sell you out
for what
you've done
to me.
