Addiction An addiction has overcome me, you. Angels dare not, instead, only that fool, me… I inject your color into my veins, your fragrance controls my mind, your lip’s softness a trance… Slowly my eyes shutter and close, a sweet murmur. Swaying quietly, I see your words at mind’s glance… Fire and ice - water and earth, one swallowed by the other, wincing in agony, or rapt ecstasy, debased to loss and gain… That which is yes is no, pleading an end, and no want to wait, but to go. Having conduit mirror through your eyes is you with me, analyzed… But sleep soon takes hold, and dreams unfold, a silent slumber. Awakened only by chance, to start it all again, addiction… |

Oh Lord, I know that I'm addicted to my Honey-Love... but he is addicted to me, too. I guess we are co-dependent??? Hugs, Ethel |

Addiction?...You have no idea what its like...it's a terrible situation to be in...but what the hell?...Whether it's love, alcohol or drugs...it's like money becomes little green pieces of paper next to your needs...but, addiction is real...no matter the circumstances...and only faith, self discipline and love can conquer...The good thing is, when its only a person you're addicted to...they can be replaced for nothing more than an open mind and broken heart that is easily healed...not that it's easy..but it's easier than the others....good write... |
