Love Pills

Valentine's Day collaboration with my husband.
It is becoming a mini tradition for us to do this.
Photography by me, poem by Mike.

Thank you booboo for being my soul mate. You are my everything.
Happy Valentine's Day. I love you.

Making of.

❤

You are an addict, to a drug you have never taken.
You are in withdrawal, and you've never known the difference.
You have heard of it, yet you do not believe it exists.
You have seen it in movies, and swear it is only a work of fiction.
You yearn for it, feeling foolish for wanting that fantasy.
You have tried imitations, but you have been disappointed every time.
You live among users, but you bitterly ignore their ecstasy.
You cannot stand those smiles, so you convince yourself they are forced.
Your heart is withering, as you feel the crushing weight of its absence.
You are afraid to find it, as it will be worse if you ever lose it.
You are desperate, and you would do anything for it.
It is out there, in bottles of every colour and size.
It's a high you will never come down from.
The most mind-altering, life-rearranging substance imaginable.
You will never be the same, now that your soul is full of Love.
