Love Addiction

A Poem by Ambra Celeste

Love Addiction

Dear Love,
I thought about you countless times
I tried to escape your authority, this I cannot deny
I wonder what makes you so damn strong
What gives you the power to have this much control
We are puppets in your hands; you decide who falls and who stands
You can make people spark with happiness or have them curled up in sadness
In the name of love I have seen many lose their mind 
Even a shred of their dignity could not be saved
A hole in the ground they dug with their very bare hands 
There they buried any surviving common sense 
Prisoners of your hypnotic power, we don’t stand a chance
We drink the sweet potion you brew for us
The heart only desire is to feel your comforting warmth 
The contract we sign it harnesses our mind and binds our soul 
Your heavy chains at times is too much to bear
Even so, of your addictive drug we plea for more
Intoxicated with your madness we are on top of the world
We feel light-hearted and more beautiful than we ever did before
Addicted to the flame that turns into a roaring fire
We are jailed for life; you are our heart true desire.
