Life is our lover
The mistress in the affair,
Fucking us daily
It’s stripping us bare.
Playing mind games
We jump to its feet,
Feeding us seduction
To keep us sweet.
We bow down
To all the highs & lows,
Give and take
All the laughs & blows.
We can’t end the affair
It’s too addictive,
Because life itself
Is a beautiful sickness.

Usually not recognized. Most others are sick on top of it if they even get near it. Otherwise they talk big and take hostages

I love this. You nailed it on a delicate approach at the morbid truthfulness that we all share; life. I like how you insinuate that not only is the good parts of life adictive, but the pain is just the same.
