Extinguished

Around and around and around
we go again....
Why can you not be happy ?
Always fighting
Always roaring
Always making me cry

Curse you damn it
Why do I still stay?
You are addictive in your bright moments
until morning comes again
magic wears away leaving
nothing but a dull reality.

I look in the mirror
I dont see anyone i recognize.
Who is this weary looking scraggler?
Bruised and beaten.

You leave me,
and expect me to be here when you return?
I can't take it anymore.
I can't.
