Oh, That White Powder

Oh, That White Powder

A Poem by I Am Svetlana

I've stained my heart.
Restrained the torturous lies.
Just take a look into my mind.

Chop the powder into a fine line.
My turn to snort it this time.
Give me a kiss so divine.
Let our fingers intertwine.
Our lives, possibly unwind.

The white powder
Drains away all the tears.
Sending electrical currents
Coursing through my veins.
"Oh, how lovely you are." It says.
Giving me those favorite tingles and chills.

Paint me a portrait of the skyline.
For in Heaven, we could dine.
Without a doubt,
You'd always be my Valentine.

Wow, me too! I tried it for about a month or two earlier this year when I was at school. Interesting.. read more
An interesting analogue to portray. One could consider the possible neurological damage that drugs can cause to be similar to the effects of a bad relationship, and the themes of addiction and mindless behaviour translate nigh perfectly.

Very thought-provoking. Great stuff!

Love is a habit that's hard to break. Like smoking and taking drugs...reminds me of the Jenny Lewis song, Acid Tongue. It concisely portrays the bliss and shattering heart break that our addictions leave us with.

It sounds like someone has an addiction. I do like it though.
