The Worst Poison

I drove three hours to see you. 
I called out of work,
I missed a meeting to be with you. 
I spent the little money that I have on you. 
I ended meaningful relationships to please you. 
I hold you in my hand and I worship you. 
Now you course through my veins,
Everything is still.
