Raison d'etre

Raison d'?tre

I long to feel your touch
To sensationalise my finger tips
I want to bring you close to me
And breathe in your heady scent

I know I cannot live without you -
More than ever I sense an urgency.
Needing you, wanting you,
You make everything seem OK again.

But you are finite. Fleeting.
You tease me and still I fall for you
As you slip from my grasp
And go to another.

You know I cannot live without you
You know the pain your absence brings.
Yet still you go, an irregular lover,
Money, my poison, my addiction.
