Addicted to Love (Shadow Monsters)

8/22/19

You may be addicted
to illegal or prescription drugs,
sugar, coffee, candy, carbs,
fast cars, sex, relationships, cigarettes,
performing acts of charity,
giving,
taking,
hurting self,
Hurting others,
stealing,
beauty,
creating,
destroying,
electronics, work,
play, games,
sleeping, never sleeping, doing nothing, never stopping,
et cetera, et cetera.

But it all comes back
to the same source
—an addiction to the purest force
—Love, and feeling of
that highest good,
And we want it so much
we will sell our souls,
will change who we are,
change our direction to just
keep
the
High
—the adrenaline that reminds
we are physically here

But we become addicted to
our best intentioned,
innocent source.
The addiction takes over
and makes us forget
our
“why,”
and turns us into
shadow monsters of ourselves,

But makes us see
monsters in
everyone else.
