Needing You

[bean]

I need you,

but you are my poison.

While you build me up

on the outside,

you ruin me

on the inside.

You make me euphoric -

give me temporary

self-esteem.

We spend the night together -

but in the morning you are gone.

You leave me shaking,

and my body aches -

I see things that aren't there.

Having you again

fixes all of that.

I wish I didn't need you.

I wish I felt better about me

to be without you,

but you make me wonderful -

if only for a little while.

I wish I could leave you forever,

but I always return.

Will I ever be free from

your grasp?

Sadly, this poem isn't about a person, but a thing....but, each of you have your own experiences that you brought into reading this, so don't let my meaning influence your meaning.

I sensed that it was about a drug or drugs. I was married to an addict. This is what I saw.

I got your meaning.. *Hugs*

But my drug is a person.. and well... :tear

Im with you Nienna. This middle part was my last relationship. Kind of. It was wrong from the start. Now it's over and I feel cold inside.

I like this.
