Withdrawal Poem by john wake

I shiver, sweat, sleep not.
Once you where a lover,

I don’t dream, scream, am not me
In this affair, which began fair.

Now I want to part
But you clasp, grasp,
A hater, eater of my laughs.

The decision decided
Easily, with ease,
But actions aren’t acted.

The pact once
Purely passionate
Pleasure, but
now natural
Law only lets.

So I shiver, sweat, sleep not
My insides, intestines scream,
My brain drains hours not
In sleep but dreams
Of you.

On you, am not me.
Let me flee.
So I can be.
