You're killing me

You're killing me

A Poem by Joey Martinez

I know these cigarettes kill me  
But I wish they'd kill me faster
I am a slave to her love, she is the master
You should come with a surgeon general warning 
Because of you, I can't sleep and stay awake past the morning
These cigarettes are destroying my lungs
But you're destroying my heart
Sometimes I wish I never met you and had a fresh start 
I can't help but think about you all the damn time
Just wondering... hoping the girl of my dreams is doing fine
These thoughts and feelings are so vicious
I know you mean no harm but to me you're so malicious
Because you are f*****g me up, I can't take this anymore
Sometimes I just wanna pack my bags and walk out the door
And run away, run away until I can't no more
This is what love feels like? 
This is the feeling everyone yearns for?
F**k it, I don't want it anymore 
I should have kept my receipt so I can return back to the store 
But I can't, I lost myself from loving you
My heart was ice cold but now its a melting pot of stew
Why? Because of you
You make me so happy but so mad
You were my first, and probably will be the best I ever had
But you blew it
You ripped my heart out my chest and f*****g threw it
I can't get over you, I just can't
I feel like you stepped on me as if I was a ant
You know what, I'm done with this rant
I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy my cigarette 
Because I love being with things that kill me
