His Addiction

My lovers addiction bites at him

Like the cold bites at your cheeks in december

Like an angry dog jumping up at your ankles

Demanding your attention,

And my lovers addiction,

turns him into a wall

A faceless shell,

Until NOTHING at all

Can pull him out of himself.

And it eats him away,

from the inside out-

And tells him he is nothing without

The lick of it's temptation,

The shadowey dance,

that it leaves,

In it's absense.

I am losing my lover, to his addiction..

that's so sad!! i've been there... more than once, with alcoholics, once one was addicted to porn.  i was tempted to lighten the mood with a joke but i didn't.  (was gonna say, videogames, right?"  lol)
