maybe it won't take that long
after thinking half the night
with dawn I finally see the light
coffee, thinking clear my head
of all the things that now cause dread
no longer will you get to control me
a drug I'll kick instead of feed
I used to have the strength before
when once addiction closed the door
my heart out pacing all you pursued
revenge not sweet but what I knew
tenses confusing once bestowed
the things set aside that you well know
I looked them over once or twice
even with hop it won't suffice
it's not a poem about feelings sadly
forsaken love still ends quite badly
baby you're mistaken it's a poem about doing
what's right for me even if I'm losing
parts of you that just don't fit
truly, that's the gist of it
clearing out all of my heart's debris
it's a poem about finally getting free
