My Forbidden Delight - a poetic opera?

You’re like a cigarette,

I keep consuming

Your toxic allure

In your smoke

I cannot be free

Each drag I take

A fleeting pleasure

Yet deeper into darkness

I descend

Your burning touch

A dangerous treasure

Leaving scars

That never truly mend

Like wisps of smoke

You drift away

Leaving aches of longing in your wake

I chase your ghost

Day after day

Knowing the toll

Knowing the ache

But still, I reach for you

My forbidden delight

In shadows where our secrets lie

For in your embrace

I feel respite

Even as I suffocate

Even as I sigh
