Addicted To Love

Rating: 4.8


Yester night was the hardest of my life
I went to bed heart sore and I badly needed a remedy
My chest was tight and at the same
time felt like it was about to tear apart

I felt my ribs piercing through my heart
Heart pushing back with a beat so fast fearing for life
I also felt inner parts of my body slowly
moving up as if wanting to escape

The place between my eyes hardened and tried
to push back what was trying
to come up my throat sore and I needed remedy

A fix for a fond heart is another heart,
one so far yet so close
For now I need be locked up
and be released until love comes home

I am addicted to love

Love is a spiritual experience that affects one profoundly, it lingers long after the source of stimulation is gone. It's whimsical and temperamental, coming unannounced and may leave without warning. I like the line: A FIX FOR A FOND HEART IS ANOTHER HEART. Very insightful indeed. A well articulated piece of poetry nicely penned from the heart. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
