Slave

Lies paint your tongue with acid Burning me up Bringing me down To fall like toxic plastic Tainting every loving feeling... dirty brown Your eyes don't hide no secrets They pull me in Then spit me out To fill me full with regrets Knowing every loving moment's... full of doubts Here I remain... a slave to your attractions Seeking your affection It's you I crave Here I remain... Ignoring gut reactions Craving satisfaction I'm just your slave Your chains of hate may bind me Don't release me Won't let me go. I'm shackled by malignancy Feeding my addiction is all... I’ll ever know. Here I remain... a slave to your attractions Seeking your affection It's you I crave Here I remain... Ignoring gut reactions Craving satisfaction I'm just your slave Here I remain... a slave to your attractions Seeking your affection It's you I crave Here I remain... Ignoring gut reactions Craving satisfaction I'm just your slave Jane Shields (C)

A visceral write! The repetition having an excellent chilling effect. Goosebumps. (and just noticed, my captcha is "run";)
