Addiction

The Last Ogre on Oct 27, 2009

Getting over a delightful vice.

Image via Wikipedia

You are my brand of heroin,

my taste of seduction.

Your scent drives me insane,

my kind of obsession.

***

You are my delicious wine,

my intoxication.

Never will be enough,

to satisfy my thirst.

***

My glorious addiction

that’s what you are.

You brought me to damnation,

took me that far.

***

You have my heart in your palm

but still… I must resist.

Love and commitment calls.

Its all for the best.

***

Slowly… the need to step back…

How my heart aches

to stay away, hold back

from you… My addiction.

***

For Cream O, my seductress, my addiction.

Strangely familiar poem! Very like one written by Glynis Smy entitled \’Seduction\’. What an odd coincidence.

I think what it is is that you don’t personify your subject for me. You’re still a very good writer.

Yes, nice work here. I see a committed person choosing not to stray, am I right?
