I Am An Addict For Your Love

Posted on Love

I am an addict for your priceless love
Made for each other – like a hand in a glove –
For you, I thank the Lord and I thank Christ above,
Because I’m an addict for your love.

I lust for you by day, and I crave for you at night;
God! What can I say – my fiery passions you ignite
Not just here, now, but everyday… you set my soul alight.
I am an addict for your love.

With you, fears are gone – sent away….I’m no longer stressed, uptight,
Your very touch makes me feel OK, you bring me pleasure, soft delight;
My expenditure you repay – your very presence makes me feel all right.
I am an addict for your priceless love.

My lips await your special touch; I hunger for your magic spell,
I can’t get enough – too much – of your taste, your pervasive smell.
You’re my lifeline, my emotional crutch… worries fade – all seems well….
I am an addict for your love.

I want you when I awake – and I want you twenty times a day.
You satisfy me with each intake (there’s no delay, no lingering foreplay),
But I know my heart you will surely break… and my health you will betray.
I am an addict for your priceless love
Made for each other – like a hand in a glove –
For you, I thank the Lord and I thank Christ above,
But I’m an addict for your love.

One more puff and one more suck: let me breathe you in again.
I know now that I’m out of luck – but unwrap that cellophane –
I’ll ignore the breathing pain if you’ll ignore the coughed bloodstain.
I am an addict for your love.

But I know I’ll pay with my life – just listen to my chesty wheeze.
The rot in my lungs is terminal – its rife – you’ve killed me with disease
As surely as if you’d used a knife. You’ve killing me…
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(Hell of name for a lover’s disease).
I am an addict for your priceless love.
