Sober

This is hard to say…
I don’t want you anymore
Yet, I tremble at the thought
You have been here
It seems forever
You kept every promise
You satisfied every need
I don’t want you anymore
When my world crumbled
You took hold of my hand
When I held my breath
Demanding to die
You whispered lies of hope
We danced dreams together
I don’t want you anymore
I close my eyes
And suck your bitter-sweet essence
Slowly you reduce me
You take me away
I don’t want you anymore
Tomorrow will break
And you will be gone
A fresh beginning
A Day One
I don’t want you anymore
