In Withdrawal

In Withdrawal

A Poem by A.C. Lei

You are like a drug, an addiction I can't shake off. 
No matter how I try to act normal, 
You are like a drug, an addiction I can't shake off. 
The shivers, the withdrawal is still there. 
I need to hear your voice, I need to see you, 
Be with you. 
I want to feel your hand on mine, hear your laughter 
As we laugh like there's no tomorrow. 
Now I'm stuck in a slump, wanting nothing but to lie down 
To sleep through the numbness, hopefully forgetting you. 
I try to tell myself you're nothing good, 
A liar, a player and a cheat 
Except we were never together, were we? 
I had no reason to feel like this, 
To feel betrayed, to feel cheated, 
To feel so alone.
