Linger

My faith in you grows weaker

As I get older,

For maturity takes over,

Wipes away your innocence.

Time dies, old friend,

And trust can be broken.

Lying has done you no good,

It has only pushed me away.

This force you use against me

Has grown so strong.

Oh,but I have grown stronger.

So why do I choose to linger?

I will never understand
Why I stuck by your side

All these years,

My dear.

For all you’ve done is

Lie.
Cheat.
Relapse.

All I’ve done is

Cry.

Move on.

I relapse back to you every time.

I hate you so much that

I love you even more.

I will never admit to myself

That you’re an addict and a wh**e.

Mother,

Why is it still you that I adore?
