I’m just here to take you
on the adventure of a lifetime
wherever that leads us.
​
You don’t know you need me yet, but you do.
You don’t yet know how lost you are without me, but you are.
I can be the drug you crave.
Your analgesic. Your anesthesia. A weapons grade answer to your prayers that God was too afraid to hear.
Let me intoxicate you and breathe life into you.
​
And then… when it’s all over
and the wreckage of our recklessness
and the embers of the moments we burned lie at our feet,
you’ll turn to me for one last sigh,
hoping that I can anesthetize you one more time…
but I’ll be gone.
