The Killer Poem by Morgan Stanton

No, i don't hate you
I just hate the ciggarettes that blacken your lungs
And the alchohol that murders your liver
and how it cuts your life short
I hate the night
For taking you away
But, i dont hate you

I worry for you
And wonder if youll ever return
From the trecherous dark
Will you come back for me?
Will i get to see that face of yours
Once again?
I worry for myself

I'm scared for the future
What will happen?
Will you be here for me?
Will the black lungs
And the destroyed liver
Finally catch up to you?

It seems you dont listen
To my pleas,
Try for me?
Try to cease the killing
I know its hard
There is a reason its called addiction
But will you try?

I miss the real you
not the you that sways with each step
I miss your smile
not the frightening frown
I miss the trust,
But i dont know what the truth is

I know you love me
You tell me all the time
You can't stand it when im away
And you seem perfectly fine
But when i return
You drink the pain away
and i believe im the cause
And it hurts me

Time seems to be running out
And Just know that I love you
And the world will be different
When your gone
But we'll live for the time now
and maybe time will stop
and we'll spend forever together


I love you mom
