addiction

with you the grey skies become vibrant

and the air feels clear of the burdens

we share

in a world designed for us to survive

and not live

a blurred vision with hope and possibilities

beyond the happiness of temporarily

being with you

and i need this to feel something

to feel alive

to want to breathe and exercise

my right to exist

but when the feeling is gone

and i am all alone

when you have withdrawn from what we once were

i am cold

i am incomplete

i am no longer free
