Banished

The very first sight sent me reeling

Day after day I lusted to devour

The intoxicating exuberance of

The beauty called you

 

I was guarded

I was warned

About the transformations that

I had undergone

 

Little does an addict

Heed to anyone’s advise

 

Hours

Days

Weeks

Months

Years

Centuries it has been now

When the lunacy of love

Revolves and evolves

Around you

 

Devoid of senses

Devoid of self

I wake up just to

Slumber again into

Dreams that bring me

To you.

 

Termed as dangerous

Labelled as a threat

To the cynical society

They have banished me

To a rehab

For they find me

Too addictive to YOU
