> ETERNAL SYMBIOSIS
> I’m with you in the morning
> I’m with you every night
> I’m with when you acquiesce
> I’m with you when you fight
>
> I own your every single breath
> And the marrow of your bone
> I own the thoughts within your head
> I own your very soul
>
> I pull your strings to amuse my whims
> Hot tears run down your face
> I laugh as you frantically look for your meds
> I know where they are misplaced
>
> I make you clench and release your fists
> I make you pull your hair
> I make you clench the blankets tight
> I hurt you and I don’t care
>
> I am the monster that rules your life
> I am the beast inside
> I am the creature that causes this pain
> There’s nowhere you can hide
>
> I make you dance to my favorite tunes
> I make you sing the saddest songs
> I make dig in the medicine chest
> I make the nights so very, very long
>
> I make you beat your fists so hard
> Against your fragile face
> I tease you with fresh razor blades
> Against the skin you can't replace
>
> I make you stop in the pharmacy
> The sleeping pills make you sigh
> I make you go to the hunting store
> And count the ways you could die
>
> I torment you with promises
> Of serenity and peace
> An eternity of solitude
> That’s just within your reach
>
> A handful of pills or a deeply slit wrist
> And all of your dreams would come true
> Or so you think, because here I rule
> And I will never allow that of youJust re-reading old boards. Scott was a terrific writer. I missed him. Where is he now?
