My putrid obsessions

My dear, you're my obsession
I'm going through withdrawals
I think I've learned my lesson
I am trapped within these walls

I think about you every hour
When I dream you're there
Without you I have no power
All this pain I bear

I love you more than any friend
I've ever known or cared for
I hope we're together in the end
Victorious in this war

I'm addicted to you
And all that you are
You must see it's true
I've probably gone too far

I hate myself for bringing you hurt
I can do nothing right
I wish you would stop
Stop trying to fight

I've given up on having you
But I still hold hope in pain
At first the cuts were just a few
But now my fear is slain

You are my true release
The cuts are only fleeting
With you I have real peace
But pain is exhilarating

I haven't talked to you in weeks
I am quickly dying inside
The death comes out in little leaks
You know, and you've cried

I've screwed up your life
I cant stand myself
I should have done it right
If not for anyone else

This is hurting you
More than its hurting me
Just let me go
So you can be free

Even when I was with you
I was a manipulative b****
I don't know why you love me so much
I love you
So very very much
