your vulnerability is ******
i inject it into my veins
and it quickly overtakes my heart.
your honesty is whiskey
it's sweet and warms me to my core
but burns a little on the way down.
your touch an amphetamine
sending jolts through me
that simultaneously soothe and thrill me.
your attention is like ecstasy
making my chest swell
and my lips curl.
your dreams are LSD
they spiral into my mind
and take me on trips to our future.
i am an addict.
you gave me a taste of what it feels like to be loved by you
and now i crave it like the drug it is.
but i can't pay your price
and now i am left in withdrawals
alone and unfeeling
a shell of who i was.
addicted to the one who left me to die.
