this addiction
to you
is by far harder to kick
than alcohol or drugs.

an emotional fix,
that's what my being craves.
all day, all night.
a good shot of you - make it a double.

your voice.
your touch.
your smell.
just to be with you.
that's what my soul needs.

but, when i'm with you
my heart aches for more.

when we're apart
the withdrawal is hell.

my God,
this is terrible.

i'm damned if i do,
damned if i don't.

when will this pass?

Sounds like you've been bitten by the love bug.

It could only be one of two thing...'love...or...hell'.If it is more painful having it in your life than living without it I would advice you to turn away from it quickly and run like the wind.This poem was different than most of yours I couldn't find that little spark of hope in this one.

I can't answer your question Steve, but I can sure relate to the emotion in this poem.
