Analysis of BLISS

Trenell Dillon 1981 (atl)



Uncontrollable waves of bliss fill my body
from my toes to my head like a cloud of smoke

Undertaken is an understatement
I'm drowning in a drug that cannot addict me
except through the worst pain
life altering hurt

Feels so good but with the potential to hurt so bad
Tomorrow's not promised and neither are you.
