HEROIN(E)

*Are you sure, baby?

***Oh yeah, I’m sure…

Beautiful veins…

Tight blue highway of purity

Await hungry my corruption.

Eyes of lustful virgin

Torturing, rending my sanity,

Virgin to needle’s seduction…

COOK…

Light the candle…

Tiny dancer, molten skin

Bestow your fiery heart

Mix it up…

Water laced with powdered sin

Watch the bubbles start.

Add a cotton…

Take a spike, draw it up,

Excitement lights her face

I tie her of, kiss her vein

She’s ready for her first taste.

I kiss her soft to let her feel

Id stay and keep her safe

Then pierced her skin

And saw the blood

And knew it was in place

Hold your breath… Ready?

Push the plunger down..

Watch you liquefy in my hands

Moans and sighs…

Faint whispers of intensity…

Medication for me.

The doctor writes his own

Prescription.

Stick the needle in deep.

Nothing fancy.

Fuck my arm and explode..

Fuck.

Whew..

Hot..

Fading.

Fading.

Away.

**

Soft, sensual, lips awakening

My senses with a kiss..

Warm waves of carnal stirs

Through thick narcotic bliss.

Through the milky fog I view

This beauty on my lips

Playfully breathing

Her words.

And angel singing in my lips

*I love you Daniel*

What the fuck am I doing?

Dear god, what have I done?

Sleep

Anger

Awakened

No

*I fucking hate you*

Her words cut deep

Hot razors in my heart

Bleeding sorrow in the dirt…

*Are you happy now*

No

*Useless fucking junkie*

I am

*You’ll never be anything*

*No one will ever have you*

*You’re poison, Daniel*

*Look what you’ve done*

*To me*

*I gave you my life*

*And you make me a piece of shit too*

*We’re done*

I plead sympathy

Atop vague promises

All muted notes

Upon the slamming door…

My bloody Rose is gone…

What

Have

I

Done?

What have I done?
