Addiction: lovers plight - emotional intoxication.

in #poetry6 years ago (edited)

Addiction


my days bleed
emptiness fills me
nothing feels right
mornings filled with joy now void,
she's gone!
time begins the torture,
daydreaming her return in the future,
one hour crawls like a snail.

my heart fades
it beats no more
trying to wake,
damn reality is fake
the love of my life
future wife to be
travelled faraway
our fond memories in horseplay,
films a replay in my head.

left me eyes close
slowly missing her hair, smell, care—
no one dares to be like her
come back my love
this absence makes life a hell,
food cooked, taste sour,
my appetite disappears.

just for two days
I can't breathe
my being is now like a fish
your absence took my river away
won't you come back?
you promised today
your racing return is another day
be on your way
I can't wait; make hay.

MY THOUGHTS

There are some lovers in this world that can't be apart from each other just for one minute. You know! Human tend to have strong emotions when nothing matters
anymore, it just 'she' or 'he' that keeps the person going.

Before the encounter they were living a normal life but all of a sudden, this one person becomes their inhaler, any slight separation within the relationship causes emotional allergies. This one person becomes their sweater over the fabric of their skin and if 'he' or 'she' is without this garb then there will be a problem; life becomes too cold to the them.

Since I the poet is a 'he' the person to miss must be a 'she'.

So this was what inspired me to write this poem; it's a poem that narrates the longing of a lover when they are far remote or beyond. If you happen to read this piece and can relate then this poem is for you.

I know some people out there would say; "impossible" Just because of my 'gf' or 'bf' hey, I can cope with the absence but to some it's hard; major reason centers around emotional addiction. If you see a smoker, isolating 'him' or 'her' from a stick of cigarettes or cigar is like burying them alive.

Distance is not really a good factor in relationship. You have actually broken down this piece. Thanks @udezee
