Addiction

I had convinced myself you were just a stray fascination.

Soon elevated to an obsession,

Or maybe a deliberate intention.

I believed you were a fragment of my imagination,

An affair that captivated my soul.

You made me laugh a little too hard,

A tear or two sometimes.

But with each ‘hello’ I’d twitch and dance to your tune,

Once, oh maybe twice…actually a couple of times.

I sometimes reminisce our mystical pathways.

Well mostly the times I day-dreamed of a perfect family- you, me and two little kids,

Or more if you want.

You set my soul on fire,

I couldn’t resist- how could I?

You are my personalized heroin brand,

If there was a cocaine cigar, laced with chocolate fudge and coffee musk,

It’d probably be you.

I’d gladly devour.

I wish I didn’t think of you half as much as I wanted to,

My heart wanders, my mind seeks reason,

But it’s like an explosion inside,

The stars to my cloudy night,

I have craved you a little too much to let you go.

Shakespeare dreamed of such intense want,

Leonardo painted it,

I felt it.
