Quicken

I sit in a euphoric haze.

The stimulants have quickened my heart rate.

So I reach for something more mellow without a thought or care in the world.

When the bottles are full I would never dare hesitate. 

My love of mind altering fun has quickened with each and every one of our romantic dates.

I am the queen of allowing things to escalate 

To bend and break beyond the point of repair.

Far and beyond the chance to escape.

The truly twisted part of it all is…

I wouldn’t have it any other way.
