My Opiate

You are my sun. My every action gravitates, orbits, revolves around you. Pulling me closer and closer your rays of light are magnetic, and I can't fight the temptation. I am blinded by what makes sense, hypnotized by the warmth so near, and deceived by the beautiful mask you wear. For what lays inside the golden yellow of your exterior silently waits to destruct, explode, and erase every memory of the entrancing star you used to be.
