Poison

Why won’t you stop this?
Everything is falling apart.
The poison courses through you,
It’s slowly breaking my heart.
 
I’m losing hope I once had,
And it’s destroying me.
You swore to me you’d end it.
From this bond, you could be free.
 
First sorrow, then anger swell within me.
Stop repeating these stupid lies.
How can you say you’ll stop,
While looking in my eyes?
 
No one should go through that.
Who you are has aged me past my years.
I can hear it in your footsteps,
I’m on the verge of tears.
 
I don’t know what to do now,
I just pray for the curse to end,
Though I’m not giving up,
I’m slowly giving in.
