Intelligence minimal
Based only on the need to survive
Choosing a host instinctively
Who best to allow him?
To slowly suck her dry?

**Shit, guess that’d be me**

Thru endless bottles of SoCo
And piles of cigarettes
Only taking never giving
Contributing or loving
Just a leech in disguise
That clinged and held on for dear life
A death grip on me
So hard to escape
Spiraling downward without realizing
The rapidness of my fall
Accelerated as he hung on tight
Desperately becoming
A leech on my back
As he drained my money and motivation
Before the escape could take place
Packing, leaving him homeless
Pathetic and pitiful
No remorse no regret
No tears even spilled

Now years later,
He has reappeared
Fresh out of detention
And although
I’m free from him
I’m not free from him
For mistakes in the past
Have him entwined even more intricately
Not impossible to undo
Just not possible to erase
Him from my past
Or my present…

However, I hold in my heart the promise
Of a new beginning
With The One that gives and gives
To share together
Life happily ever after

The leech will have no part of this
No part of my future
A role he gave up long ago
Thru deceit and slothfulness
I will not allow him even a taste
Of my blood, body or soul
I will eventually extract him for good
In a 90 day judgment
That will give me freedom again
To live MY life without him
