the drug of love

we all become
hostage at times to love,
or love imagined.

to someone who isn't
who you thought they were.

it's a drug,
this sort of infatuation.
another hit,
another kiss,
or card,
or piece of chocolate.

in the beginning it's a high.
a true
level of strange
bliss.

but it never returns
when the mask slips.

you chase it. chase it.
but it's too late, you're
hooked.

a junkie to something
that doesn't exist.
