Euphoria

Transient

White strewn across the floor

In patterns unknown,

Of dreams tabooed-

 

If only you’d known …

 

Powder and passion entwined.

Smoke and ecstasy mark-

Your pathway into the infinite dark.

 

Highs and lows

You breathe in dreams

Find a vein, push it in

Heroin will drown out your screams.

 

You’re invincible, if only for tonight.

Syringes and cocaine will fuel your flight.

 

You’re flying like kites

Only higher-

And like a kite you’ll fall

Only harder.

 

If only you’d known

If only, you’d known …
