Addiction

Your heartache, your affliction
that we shared.
The symptoms of your sickness
both unprepared.

The slave you became
by this alluring temptation.
Your hand slipped from mine
into a desolate, depravation!

Guilt and shame, bled
you dry, no water to
aid your arid time
so damn helpless was I.
Your expression, a shamefaced
goodbye.

All alone, with a compulsive infection
no prescription to help
your pain of self infliction

Gripped in the hands of an alien fate
A medley of feelings left upon my plate.
Consumed with a bitter taste
choking and retching,
on waste.

I crave your destination is at peace
and you are somewhere at ease.
The attraction struck and forced
to its knees!

From wherever, from then until now
I am here for you , this I vow.
My palms have nourished overtime
your hand I will hold tight, back in mine.

If you can reach me
I will wait.
I'm here for you, and
together a new chapter,
we will create.
