The Wrong Path
You're an addiction,
A drug,
So good for me,
And anything but.
You love me so much,
But only when you want to.
And when you don't,
You're a monster,
A terrifying beast.
You hate anything,
Everything,
Everyone,
Me.
Like a candle in the dark,
You guide my way.
But then you burn out,
And I'm alone once again.
I beg and plead, but you refuse to set me free.
And then I look over my shoulder and see that you left me.
Like a delicious bar of chocolate,
You call my name.
The craving is so intense,
And it just cannot be tamed.
I don't want to go,
But the pull is so strong,
And by now I'm so used to it,
Not going back seems so wrong.
