Addiction

Another poem from my canon of literary works:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The desire is powerful, pulling at me.

The oxygen leaves my chest in sporadic tatters.

The sickness rises and threatens to consume me.

I walk away, I try to run, but it is always there.

A dark cloud, a black aura, a shadowed doorway opens before me.

I reluctantly step through and something wicked greets me,

welcomes me home to Hell.

• Today's Cure song is Burn from "The Crow" Soundtrack -(1994). This song was also featured in the Join The Dots: B-Sides and Rarities Collection - (2004) A great heavy drum & bass laden song that goes well with the movie creating dark imagery with it's haunting lyrics.

"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr. Murmuring me away from you."Don't talk of worlds that never were, the end is all that's ever true"
