I cant be around you
But I cant be without you
I'm addicted to you
I need you
I want you
I hate that I love you
I love that you hate me
I'm addicted to you
You do nothing good for me
You just kill me faster
But I just cant help injecting you
I'm addicted to you
I need you
I want you
I hate that I love you
I love that you hate me
I'm addicted to you
You are my drug
I bleed for you
I cry for you
And all the same
You are the one who makes it that way
I'm addicted to you
I look at you
Your perfect eyes
Your piercing eyes
Your deadly eyes
I'm addicted to you
I see your soul
Your perfect soul
Your crying soul
Your zombie soul
I'm addicted to you
I hear your thoughts
Your perfect thoughts
Your morbid thoughts
Your suicidal thoughts
I'm addicted to you
I touch your skin
Your perfect skin
Your cold skin
Your scarred skin
I'm addicted to you
I hear your words
Your perfect words
Your condemning words
Your poison words
I'm addicted to you
I never want to see you again
I regret ever meeting you
I hate the way I cant hate you
I hate the way you can only hate me
I'm addicted to you
I need you
I want you
I hate that I love you
I love that you hate me
I'm addicted to you
I can't be around you
I can't be without you
I'm addicted to you.
Author notes
*edit* this is an old poem, uh, again, im sorry but went over 40 lines in this one, but a good poem shouldnt be defined as one under a certain amount of lines. anyway, i thought i'd enter this because its about being addicted to the opposite sex. well, at least it could be taken that way ~2007

Disturbing.
Wow, the insanity and obsession just come full circle and on and on it goes. Well done, I love the use of phrase repetition. Truly a dark verse. Thanks for entering.

I think the imagery you employ adds to the desperation of your piece, Making the reader feel addiction, your use of repeating some lines really works. Well written human emotion. Well done and keep up the good work.
