I needed you
on that cold January day
when I met to get my fix.
I needed you
when you denied me
and left me in the dirt.
I needed you
as my eyes froze
shut with tears.
I needed you
as my hand clutched
the pill bottle in my pocket.
I needed you
to keep me from myself
ending my life.
I needed you
and you left me there
to pick my own self up.
I needed you
but I don’t now,
That was 7 long years ago.
I don’t need you anymore.
