Don't ask me where I'm at

Such bliss
I encounter
While I live in my pain
My agony
I feel the caresses of
My anguish
And they lure me in with
Promises of
True
Ecstasy
They bring the bait
And I am the catch
Given to a king
The drug lasts long enough that
I can forget
For a while
And live in a life not my own
I can lose track of time
And make a wish on a star
That turns out to be just a light

Deep within I know
I will never find escape
But still I try
To hunt for sustenance and
Get lost in the lust
And bitterness of
My own heart
