Relapse

A poem

Carrie in Sex and the City Season 1 (1998)

When we’re apart I only think of when I can get high again
When I’ll be lifted from my sorrows and into your arms

Feel my body give in
Limp under your influence, your spell

My mind dizzy, your hands searching
My voice breathless, your lips traveling

Each kiss, a prick of a needle
Each time, a rush of pure feeling

Pulling me from my numbness
Making me feel
Alive

I can’t wait to welcome you back into my garden
And bare my fruit to you
You’re hungry
And I crave that look in your eye
