Addict to Ashes

Scraps~n~Scribbles

In those moments

When life is hard

The world is loud

I turn to you

 

I know you

You are steady

And quiet

So I turn to you

 

We are always

Alone together

But still

I reach for you

 

As I pull you close

You light up

I inhale you

Intoxicating

 

My brain floods

Endorphins

Dopamine

Your scent covers me

 

Nothing but our fire

Your warmth in my mouth

My exhalations over you

I needed this

 

When it is over

And you are spent

Nothing left to give

My senses return

 

I wash off your scent

Only memories remain

And your toxic, cloying love

I'll turn to you again

 

Because I know

Even though

This kills us both

I turn to you
