"It seems to me, that love could be labeled poison and we'd drink it anyways." ~ Atticus
~~**~~**~~
You came into my life like a storm, raked me off my insecurities, stripped away my fears and ruined all my tranquil notions.
The girl who assumed that relationships are nothing but unsolicited trouble, was now lost in the maze of your erotic essence, hypnotized by your irrevocable love.
Before I could even explicate all that was happening so drastically, the old me was gone and this newer version of me, needed you more than she needed the oxygen to breathe.
You became my oxygen, my daily dosage of drug, my ruin and my salvation.
And all of that at once.
You could pull my strings and I would blissfully comply to all those direful tugs. Because I trusted you, blindly and madly.
Hours felt like seconds with your arms around me. And everything dangerous felt exhilarating. Because I was high on your love, intoxicated with your sinful touches and amorous kisses.
You could burn me down, set fire to my conscience, render my ethics into embers, and I wouldn't even know. I wouldn't even care.
Because I was yours forever. My soul and body, a canvas to taint with your darkest desires.
