Love is an Addiction

Love is addictive
Like a drug
adrenaline rushing
pumping
racing through your system
butterflies and rainbows
tomorrows and sunshine
feelings of bliss and prospect
brought from another person
their touch, gaze, kiss, lust
Love and lust wrapped into one
feelings of forevers and happily ever afters
Excitement for tomorrows
awaking to their face, smile and embrace.
So quickly it comes, as quickly it goes away.
taken, ripped from your soul.
Bleeding without bandage
love spills, pours everywhere
drains down to the floor.
The floor on my knees
pleading an begging
Eyes swell
tears gently fall.
Taken away without recourse
without feeling of sorrow or remourse.
What happened to the caring
the sharing
the promised made.
The drug has been taken
drained
from existance
it flows
Gone from your body and soul.
Withdrawal sets in
shaking
sickness
chills and cold sweats
feelings of regret.
Needing a fix
you search to heal
you are now an addict
needing their love just to feel.
