Guilty Pleasures

Addiction can be a very powerful thing. How far someone allows it to take the defines the intensity of it all.

Hungry for love.
The feeling of it.
The sound of her own screams.
She wanted it all.

Never once thinking about others.
She looked for her next fix.
But this fix wasn't drugs.
It was one that could please her.
Please in a way no drug could ever.

No matter how many times a day.
She never seemed satisfied.
Knowing this was a real problem.
It continued on for years to come.

Knew she could never commit.
Love was never in her visions.
But the same pleasure remained.
Until tainted love came with a cost.
And slowly her body changed.

Looking in the mirror,
She never understood what she saw.
More and more she grew tired.
But still eager for the feeling of love.

To every addiction
There's a tragedy that follows.
Hers being the end.
The end to her need for love.
End to her guilty pleasures.
