Natural opiates



Natural opiates,
Agitated we tap nervously on the systematic flow of love and light
Angry veins swell and we spill over
Telltale signs
Some things even the blind can see
Straight to the brain
Piercing
Penetrating passions
The rush unimaginable

Treading the needle
Today we sparkle
Tomorrow we burn
Walking contradictions
Beautiful beginnings
Tragic ends?
Blood ties
Strength and weakness
But you're the only one to make me try for you
Fiends of all the small ways we die everyday

Your presence is implied
Around my throat and by my side
Overdosing
Overwhelmed by feeling
Like air we reach the ceiling
Fading
Sensory overload reuniting on the floor
We are sinking.

Absolutely gorgeous Ridding lite flares They rival us to fireworks Mingled reassurances Bless them for being wise enough to look away Like down town streets flowering rooms with crack pipes Gasp at the audacity You'...
