Your slow suicide
Always made me cry
Wondering if I’d get the chance
To tell you goodbye
Tried living a normal life
While I watched you live a lie
Drowning in hopelessness
Hearing you justify
Mother, you must be blind
Because you fail to see
That your suicide
Is slowly killing me
Your fate was one
Easily predicted
You lived to die
Always addicted
Never getting
What you deserved
You will live on
In my heart preserved
You said you’d quit
All the times I wept
Making promises
That you never kept
Now I’m the one
Who pays the price
Because you couldn’t take
Your own advice
Always believing
It wouldn’t affect me
Straight from the one
Who should protect me
A sad portrait
You have depicted
Drawn to things
Both evil and wicked
It was a disease
Though self-inflicted
My heart goes out to
Those who love/are the addicted
