I am addicted to you Every time I see you My heart skips a beat in excitement A sweet sensation of joy spread thru me I just can't stop my heart from singing beautiful and joyful you are You're like a ray of sunshine spilling joy into my life I am ever so happy Every time I look into your dazzling eyes I am lost and don't wanna be found They capture my breath Holding my heart a prisoner And undresses me to the naked eye of nature You're like a prescription of joy I am addicted to you I am high on happiness Every time I hear your voice I get so hypnotized that I only see your fine lips Moving, as you talk to me Often I tire you telling you to repeat what you’ve said because your voice plays like symphony into the deepest core of my soul Please, never stop talking to me as you do Every time I touch your skin, Adrenaline shoots into my system like a myriad Doses of bliss fused with cosmic allure Sometimes I’m tempted to call off meetings And visits, only to find my arms Wrapped around your waist for an entire day Being close to you is all the heaven I know You're my addiction of joy I crave you

Hi Akkina. Lovely poem full of love and joy. I'd like to make a suggestion though. Hope you don't mind. In the 3rd verse, 4th line, I think it should be: "Often you may tire my telling you to repeat...."

What a wonderful collaboration Akkina and you writing partner? Addicted to Love, a different caving to chocolate, sounds like more fun, and definitely wont put on weight with this lovely alternative. A great write, good luck with the contest...Maria
