Love is a drug

The pain is constant,
it stabs you like sharp knives,
love is like a disease,
it brings you straight to your knees,
At first it feels magical,
but it always ends up tragic,
Happiness only last a while,
it never lasts forever,
Love is a drug,
it can be addicting,
but once you get hooked,
you have a chance of dying

© Katie S., Vineland, NJ

I have been heart broken in the past and it still effects me today in a big way, and that is what inspired me to write this poem.
