Attraction

radioactive obsession

By Nicole WilliamsPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

IN the air the smothers

IN the food that chokes

IN the water the drowns me

IN the fire that burns

I find you standing

Whispering to me

Soft insanities

Hallucination within a dream

Visions within a nightmare

Liquid magic, chain reactions

Voices in the wind…

With my thoughts I find you

With my heart I follow

With my body I seek your…

Holding to you ardently

Mindlessly pursuing

Always assuming

Nothing could ever change

Letting go, retreating

Regretting the truth in tales

Bemoaning what we shared

I fear you

Your fascinations

Seeking our colorful

Destructive actions

Retreat… embrace

Oh, this obsessive, radioactive

Attraction.
