Addict
I'm an addict. And you're my drug of preference
I’m completely hooked on you
I wake, you're the first thing I think of
and you're my last thought at night
Just can’t get you out of my head
You have permeated me
My body physically craves you
I want you near me
On me
I want you inside me
All over me
I want you to saturate my every fragment
Pervade my very particles
My craving, so compelling
it makes my stomach churn,
my heart race, my mind constantly wander
My thoughts are so entirely consumed by you.
My narcotic
When I'm with you I get a little taste...
just enough to make my mouth water,
my lips tingle and my skin crawl
with the need for more
When you're gone the withdrawals begin
and l miss you fiercely
Every part of me objects to your absence
My very fibre protests at the lack of you
I seek you compulsively
Urgent mania so completely fixated
Simply can't get enough of you
I need a fix
Can never get the full high
I'm rendered powerless
Weakened by my need
It's stronger than the rest of me
Too deficient to resist
My hunger is endless
Totally hooked and I want more
You're my poison and my remedy
