It hits you like a semi-truck, but in slow motion, so you know what's happening, can feel it crush you bone by bone, but can't stop it...
It burns through you like poison through your veins. It will be the end of you, but the descent is unbearably sweet, torturously beautiful...
You're drawn to the fire, then you drown in the rain you run to put it out with. Hypnotized and sleepless, you are bent to the will of it...
It is so intricate you can't even hope to disect it, so out of reach it's a dream to you...
But when it takes you over, it is stunning in its complete simplicity, devoid of human complication and capable of changing your whole life...
It can make you immortal in the space of a breath, and kill you in less time than even that.
It is the only thing I want...
...What is it?
