Silent killer -

Like a primal force,
You course through my veins.

Taking me captive,
Encasing me in dreamy chains.

I recall that initial moment,
When you first enveloped me.

Innocent it seemed,
Your entrance into my reality.

Yet now I am adrift,
Lost in the sands of time.

Addicted to you,
A perilous yet seemingly sublime climb.

I yearn for the day,
I rejected your embrace.

For then, today, I'd thrive,
In a life with a different grace.
