Addiction

First your tongue feels dry
Your whole mouth aches for a taste
Soon it spreads to your belly
And every inch of your flesh

Your eyes feel dry
Void of liquid, you yearn for a drink
Closing your eyes
You fight for thoughts of other things

Then the pounding
The throbbing behind both your eyes
Searing pain in your teplmes
Pulsing with every beat of your heart

The pounding fills your ears
You gulp for every breath
Claustrophobia seems to set in
Got to get free

Fight it
Refuse it
Don’t let it get you
Don’t let it win
