Musical Drug

something that just came out in like 10 minutes

Drving in the car

playing songs on the radio

it’s hard to think

as all those songs

remind me of you.

Songs about love

and being forever

only serve

to break my heart more.

Singing along

as I want to cry

the words hitting me

right where it counts.

All I want to do

is drown in my tears.

It breaks me,

just listening to music

such torture,

and I don’t know how to end it.

For I’m addicted;

to the music,

to you,

to the way you made me feel.

I wish I could stop,

but I can’t;

you’re like a drug,

I keep wanting more and more

but only,

I can’t seem to find you anywhere

so I’m going through withdrawal

and it hurts

so so bad

and until the beat of the music stops

neither will my heart.

I wish it would stop.
