Dangerous

A Poem by SuicidePact.

Your love is stuck in my head like a song,

With words I don’t know,

That I keep getting wrong.

Like snow covered hands,

And it burns and they burn some more.

Your love’s like a constant war,

My fingers trail the death of you,

My eyes are stunned,

With tears from blue.

Every day of my life,

Every time I’ve been right,

Your name is on my lips

It’s always you I seek.

I need to remove the pain,

For you’re the one I crave

And it’s dangerous.

I lost a piece of me when I fell for you.

There is only a thing or two I can really do.

Take away the thoughts,

Scrape away the memories

You’re all I bleed, all I breathe.

You’re a piece of me.

I’m in survival mode.

And you’re the enemy.

Every day of my life,

Every time I’ve been right,

Your name is on my lips

It’s always you I seek.

I need to remove the pain,

For you’re the one I crave

And it’s dangerous.

So dangerous.

'And it's dangerous.
So dangerous.'
So very true.
Love and gambling huge sums of money that you just can't afford to lose have so many parallels.
They both exhilarate, thrill, and terrify, precisely as you have put it.
This is why governments throughout the world have noted the disconnection of many individuals within their societies and calculated that this factor has a super-taxable profitability inherent in it and have even actively advanced the distancing of people from one another... by various methods of brainwashing, purely to encourage, 'all the lonely people' to seek the affections of any poker machine that gives back to them more money than or at least what they have already put into it, since with no significant other in their life, the most important thing that their entire existence hinges upon, is often their money.
It's a surrogate romance, (often with a very mean partner.)
That's part of what makes gambling so very addictive for some and it can also do the same for one's attachment to the pursuit and retaining of a lover.
