Fever
I've got that
itching
trickling
tickling
fever
that starts
as a spark
in my heart
triggered by
loneliness
boredom
discontent
moisture
beads
on upper lip
at temples
down vertebrae
pools in palms
a shiver
hard swallow
reluctant whimper
darting eyes
quickened breath
proliferating
prurient
pruritus
either way
resistance
or indulgence
the itch
only gets worse

Nicely written. As usual I like your words. The story I can relate to well, as I am sure many others can.

I think we're all addicts in some way...addicted to one thing or another.
