It all started as a minor infection
But now its a full blown disease leaving scars on his body.
He's cursed he'll only die of heartbreak.
Her addiction has turned to his,doing anything for the next fix.
Cherry tinted lips lay poison upon his skin,
Veins are blackened with sin.
She's killing him but he doesn't see pass her.
He took a risk how was he to know she would savage him
He was her cure,she was his disease.
Her love is self destructing.
The burden is too much for her,the pain she's causing him she sees.
She knows when her grip is loosened she'll sink back into her web of insecurities
Her green eyed cure needed to be saved more then she needed to love.
Her self sacrifice is what keeps her alive.
Her addiction is gone and she has a new addiciton she memorizes him from afar to be sure not to infect him again.
