We are gifted beings of rationalization

We need to understand, understand why we feel the way we do

We want to engulf our brains with knowledge of the unknown

And in this phenomenon we crave the rush of what hides in the dark

The adrenaline, the chase, the desolate, the mystery

In this darkness we find tranquility

We are gifted and strong, but need to feel weak

On this edge that we secure our humanity

We find ourselves hidden amongst impulses we cannot control

As we step into the fog, the fog that suffocates our soul

We feel anxiety, uncertainty, and fear

Accompanied with curiosity, rebirth, and defiance

In the midst of complete chaos - at the grip of our addiction

Surrounded by the fever of temptation, enclosed by the ecstasy of love

There is a hidden solace that unveils our secret truths

Truths of who we are, an awakening of what is yet to come 

your love was like a punch or two,

it knocked me down and went right through,

it was a game I could not win,

holding onto every last taste of your skin,

you were the drug I could not quit,

your love to me was a perfect fit

you desired my attention, but denied my affections

I watch you move and then I just can’t think straight~
