Addiction

She ate my emotions and kidnapped my love What once was my bottom Is now my above My intentions aren't evil but driven by her hold The warmth of her deception Left me lifeless and cold I gave her my everything She burned all I had In such a beautiful world So lonely, So sad And so I looked deep Way down inside In there was honesty Where she could not hide I began at the bottom Planted the seeds Love and compassion not selfish, not greed Complete submission Willingness, and hope Puts her in remission I'm beginning to grow
