Just Like a Pill [Acrostic]

Jealousy never was a thought to consume her, but
Under the circumstances, her cynical retorts
Seem to be right on the money. There`s a fine line
Threaded between right and wrong, and right now, it`s

Likely that you`re stumbling on them both. Her
Intoxicated breath doesn`t speak for many, but it
Kills a few; seeing her like this never was the
Easiest thing that you had to do. But you found

A weird sense of amusement in this whole act,

Playing her like a puppet, making her dance in
Isolation for days on end; too afraid to face a
Life that didn`t consist of you. You run through her veins, and just
Like a pill -- you`re headed straight for her heart.
