i get a high off the words
off of the phrases and lines
i take it intravenously
it messes with my mind
fills my head with thoughts
that i never thought i'd think
i'm getting closer now
to taking another drink
it's like an addiction
that i could never quit
something that holds me up
as i take another hit
it's like acid
it's soaking through my skin
i have to confess
this is as high as i've ever been
it's gotten into my bloodstream
seeped into my veins
i'm no longer in control
i no longer have the reins
as I rise up,
the words flow more easily,
it seems to me
I've gotten high off poetry
I enjoyed this one, it's awesome. Well done. It's a much better form of "high"ness.:)
