Dopamine Dragon

Writer: Jarlath BusbyJarlath Busby

A departure for me. It is cathartic sometimes to push my boundaries and flirt with the dark side.


Dopamine Dragon

 

Driven like the doomed Mayfly

To live life before I die

Love and lust draw their battle lines 

There will be no winner here 

Dark clouds rain regret and tears

On a failing shell and troubled mind

 

This gift that keeps on taking 

Despair where zest forsaken

Dopamine dragon beyond reach

Sliding the slippery slope 

Out of control, out of hope 

Life’s dreams now just flotsam on the beach

There's two sides to every coin and it's good to express both. A very real piece

If it wasn't for the dark we wouldn't appreciate the light
