Perfection//Starving&&Speed

I came crashing down hard at such a speed.
There was now suddenly a new meaning to the word 'need'

A craving here.
&&&an addiction lying there.
I couldn't help look at posters.
&&&begin to compare.

I wasn't intially striving to achieve perfection.
But soon it came easily.
Like a new kind of addiction.

Slicing&&&cutting away at my thigh.
He went&&&fucked me over.
Ended our romance with a kiss goodbye.

It slowly began as a self-contamination,
A self-infection.
I began to strive for perfection.
An costly&&&threatening addiction.

The poison fed my rage through my veins.
Holding back the anger,hurt&&&pain.

Lost myself in a daze.
&&&tried to not fall.
Fell to the ground.
&&&learnt to crawl.

Weak&&&powerless.
I lay on the floor.
Didn't even know who I was starving myself for anymore.

Why win in life when.
F.a.i.l.i.n.g.i.s.s.o.e.a.s.y.
You act like your fine.
I.n.s.i.d.e.y.o.u.r.f.e.e.l.i.n.g.q.u.e.a.s.y.

One last breath escapes me.
My head slowly begins to fill empty.

Smile once more darling.
Never go down with a frown.
With one f.i.n.a.l move.
The real me silently drowned.

Author notes

Argh.
The next in my little series.
The first is noticed as:

&&&this is the next installment. I was only able to write it because he went and FUCKED ME OVER AGAIN.
He's been with his new gf a year&&&it hurts to know he can do that to someone else when we were just so alright.
Okay. I'm getting pissed off so i'm going to go find a punching bag.

    Spicken awesome...rele sad though. It's a shame people go through things like this....it shouldn't happen. But...if bad things didn't happen we wouldn't be able to appreciate the good things.

      My sisters husband dealed it so I was able to steal it easily.
      Havn't done it for a year now. After a close friend of mine OD'd on it I realized what I did to everyone a few years back.
      We both havn't touched it since.
