Self-Destruction

There goes my sanity again,

Waving a hand goodbye,

Lost in the cruel, unforgiving tides.

My world is in turmoil.

What I knew, now on fire.

I have become a willing puppet of my Desire.

I'm spoon fed by you,

Poison running through my veins.

My mind is barely in control; my heart at the reigns.

Yet I smile, and I smile wide —

Aware of what this means

This is love, I tell myself

And you, the man of my dreams.
