An Endless Chase

I'm dry,
Because I need you
I'm not high,
Because I need you
I sigh, oh why?
Because I need you
I cry,
Because I need you.

My need for you
Is a hunger
It is a thirst
Insatiable in its quest
My need for you is a drive
Pushing me through limits I didn't know I had.
Time is a mirage on this ride.
It is not enough.
Chasing after you is hard
There's just so much to do.
The distractions and side attractions
Attempt to drag me to oblivion
On the edge of a precipice I play.
A dangerous game, I know.
Its the only one on my phone.
Addiction is calling
Depression is texting.
I've tried to uninstall the app
It keeps coming back
I throw my phone away only to search for it again.
I need you, again and again.
I need you like the earth needs the rain.

My need for you is blinding
Like white light after being in the dark.
My need for you is increasing,
Daily.. No by the second.
Sometimes the thought of you consumes my very soul.
And other times, you're like someone I've never known.
When we shall be one..?
I don't know,
Lover of my soul.
But until that day, I'll never stop chasing after you.
