Love Poem: Addiction

Addiction

It's like the winter turned to spring
It's like a renewing fling
Indulgence of impulses
It's like I've ascended to the throne of a king

As her name starts at the depth of my throat
To the tip of my tongue
Dancing around my mouth
A new love has begun

It's like a drug, so consuming
It's like the fog, so confusing
Looming between my head and my heart
Attempt to broom it away,
Only dragging me astray.

How can I have the strength to cast you aside
If my strength is derived from the love we confide
It's like the sound of your name rumbles the earth
And I open my eyes to rebirth

It's like everything I need is within arm's reach
But my arms are trapped and simply can't breech
My head tries to fight the parasitic winds
Until my heart pushes forward and the vicious cycle wins
As my head spins and my mouth grins
And the recycled infatuation begins again
