Poetry In the Veins

If I could I would inhale poetry
Stick a needle in my arm to reach a deeper high
 A high that only poetry can bring
    Especially the finish product
       My hell consists of writer's block
         Being force to put down the pen and the pad forever
          That would be never
            I have poetry in the veins
             it flows through my blood
               goes straight to my heart
                 Than I take it to the head
                   A passion that I will love to take to bed 
                     I want to completely undress  
                           And engulf myself
                         In it's mere essence
                         So pure 
                            So true 
                        Always completely faithful
                             I love myself some poetry
                                 I could never quit this addiction 
                                    I'm sorry  
                          Why don't you help me out
                           Let me Serenade you

                                  See a side of me U never knew
                                       A side only the pen and paper know
