Addicted

I crave freedom

I feel the urge to fly.

I want to forget

And just let the days go by.

A tiny little pill

Makes me this happy.

I feel my head in the clouds

I'm sure I'm flying now.

I wake up

With no recollection of time.

My head is pounding

And the day is passing by.

I take two pills this time

The bottle calls out to me.

The bliss lasts longer

I feel completely free.

This addiction is beautiful

It gives me all I want.

Just a tiny little pill

And everything else is gone.
