Addictions

You were the definition of

             Satisfaction.

You were the    blood

                                  in my veins, and

the smoke     in my lungs.  

I was addicted to you in the worst of ways.

It was you who could quench the eternal thirst at my lips. And it was you who could satisfy the ravenous hunger in my bones.

You were everything I needed all at once. And You gave me everything I ever wanted.

A love that

                  consumed  

                             me.
