Adrenaline

by jfrank0816

Can you hear that? Swoosh, swoosh, thump, thump. The blood rushes to your head Until your ears can't stand the pounding. Can you feel that? The beating in your chest is accelerating. A heart attack could be on the horizon. Is it the fear of getting caught Or the chase that excites me? Can you taste that? It's on the tip of your tongue And seeping through every pour And out of every outlet in your body. Can you smell that? The world around you melts fragrantly Pick your poison, your sin, your vice Whether it be booze, sex, addictive substances Or some hearty combination of the three And breathe it all in Did you see that? Every rule they tied me down with has been shattered. You won't sleep tonight if you run with us. But I guarantee you'll regret it in the morning.
