Intoxicated

I see you,

Your image blinds me.

Faster and faster I fall,

Losing grip on reality

I am not free,

Scared of changes anew

I can't see clearly

You're shielding my view.

You're in everything,

The very air I breathe

I'm choking, nearly dying

You are my defeat.

I'm dizzy, spinning around

The mere thought of you

Keeps me off the ground.

Flames lick my body,

Incinerating me whole

You are the only one

Who can truly save my soul.

My world is caving in

I can't escape; forever trapped within.

I live for you

To your being, I'm enslaved.

You are forbidden

I am forsaken

I cannot touch you

My soul, you have taken.

I need you to survive

I don't think I can stay alive

You have drained my energy

I can't let go.

I'm steadily weakened,

'Cause of what I know.

My passion burns inside

I'm convinced it won't subside.

Shadows encircle me,

Everything is black

I don't care; I can't leave

I really need you back.

Days go by unnoticed,

As my eyes blankly stare

I cannot have you

Of that, I am aware.

I feel your presence,

Somewhere nearby

I can't seem to see you

Can you please explain why?

I won't blame you,

For lighting this fire

You know it still burns brightly,

Showing deep signs of desire.
