I remember the time when we 1st met, how attractive you were to me and how beautiful you made me feel.
The romance was like nothing I had ever had before, I was giddy with happiness.
You were the most amazing thing to take me away from the reality of what I was feeling.
I didn't feel anxious around you and that was for me breathtaking, the confidence you gave me in myself was something I had never experienced before and I felt like I was on top of the world.
Life seemed so much easier with you in it.
And I wore those rose tinted glasses for years...
Then I slowly realized how much you had lied to me to get me dependent on you.
I was in your hooks now and life didn't seem so easy after all.
I needed you to feel all those things but the double edged sword was that you made me feel ugly when I needed you to feel beautiful.
You made me anxious when I needed you to feel confident.
You made me a mess when I needed you to feel like I had my **** together.
You lied to me, you stole from me and you cheated on me.
I gave you 25 years and you gave me nothing in return.
What happened to all those promises you made?
That's right, they were empty.
Everyday I wake up hoping that today will be the day that I finally find it within myself to break up with you.

Alcohol - That day is today.
