Relapse



I want to relapse.
I want to feel alright.
I want to feel sane again,
Even if it is just for a night...

I want to relapse.
I want to regain my control.
I want to stop crying,
Even just for a moment to feel whole...

I want to relapse.
I want to stop the fire in my mind.
I want to because I deserve it,
Even though peace I will never find...

I want to relapse.
I want to make that 'mistake' again.
I want to forget I was your asset,
Even though you told me I was your friend...

I want to relapse...
