Your needy vines
entangle themselves,
coiling around my
blood red heart.
I do not fear,
for the drug that runs
through my veins
shall keep you near.
They pulse,
coursing their way,
through my system,
unleashing pent up fury.
I cannot stand,
I cannot fall,
I merely hang,
in sweet ineptitude.
My thoughts are not mine alone,
I feel your presence,
cutting off what
once I held dear.
I do not question,
I know the truth,
I am merely a tool,
of loves sweet disease.
