Addicted to you...

[IvanXLIV]

Hello people,

I haven't posted poems in a while (there really should be 36 hours in a day, not 24), but I was inspired to write the following for nearly a week... I hope you enjoy it. As usual, feel free to comment and rate it!

Addicted to you

The first tremors wake me in the night, shivering,
Cold, clammy sweat drenching my bedsheets heavily;
I rise through a haze of pain, confused and shaking
Nausea assails me, cramps wracking my belly…
 
    Each second spent away from you is pure torment,
    Withdrawal symptoms kicking in painfully hard;
    I’m so addicted to you that every moment
    Without you leaves my heart in distress, its pulse marred
 
By your absence. I crave you so, suffer this curse
So badly, oh sweet escape from reality…
You are the green absinth fairy slaking my thirst,
The heroin of my innermost fantasy;
 
    Soulmate of mine, how utterly you complete me…
    Of this blissful addiction I can’t recover
    Nor would I ever want to be; your love truly
    Is the only drug I need, now and forever.

Ivan
