The Unforbidden Drug

Stay away from me,
I‘m a drug.
Not the good kind,
For when people come close,
I let them come closer.
And at one point
I make a mistake,
And it shall hurt you.
And you will do something knowingly or unknowingly,
That will inturn hurt me back.
I’m a drug with no cure
Just symptoms
And that’s what hurts,
because I want to be the cure
Rather than the cause.
Yet I’m contagious
And I truly love you
And because I love you
I wear warning -
Stay away from me.
I don’t want to hurt you
Because I will never forgive myself
It’s better you leave without a scratch
Without a mark
Without me
Please.

I beat myself mentally in claims it’ll help me do better. I carve my name into my arm to remind me of who I am. I scream into my pillow till my throat is sore, all because I love myself mama. But more than myself, I love you and I love you with the definition of love I want to believe in, what
