Addictions
I can’t stop waiting for you
It’s like my body doesn’t know any other way to be
I don’t have nightmares anymore
I went to therapy for that
But now that they’re gone, I wish they never left
It was the only way I got to still see you
All of this is so frustrating
I’m finally happy
Finally free
Finally in love with someone who actually loves me
And yet…
I end up going back to my old ways
Like how a train won’t leave its tracks
Like how a prisoner can’t leave their cell
Like how prey doesn’t leave its predator
I’ve always been a creature of habit
I just wish my habit wasn’t you

Holy calico.
Packing a punch, lime by line by line.
The deeper the go, the more we learn. The more we learn, the more we can say, “oh yeah. I remember.”
Bravo.
