Oh, yes. I love this.

"drugfucked" "hard" "shuddering" - I guess it's the hard consonants that make the first stanza tough to swallow in a good way. really nice.

second stanza adds a bit of a quirk, irony.

the third stanza falls a little flat to me - the ideas of a heart being cliche-starved, breaking, don't stand out. maybe rethink or add to it.

love the last stanza. brings everything together, makes the poem, especially the last few lines.

can't wait to read more of your work. :) thank you for reviewing mine. your feedback was very helpful, to answer your poll question not-so-anonymously.

Gross and kinda fascinating. Very strong and insistent, with the whole point of the piece (to me) being exactly the opposite. I would say you achieved your "favourite hobby" with this. Nice job.

Oh, I like this. So perfectly Requiem for a Dream.
"we are only scratching an itch
and calling it a relationship." is a great way to describe the addict's symbiotic relationship.
There's nothing I can give as constructive criticism that wouldn't inordinately rely on personal preference; I wouldn't want to misunderstand the edges of your piece and adulterate the whole. It goes down smooth and adeptly illustrates the emotion. Excellent job.

The rawness surprised me; I liked it. Your writing is wonderful.

I like that you used the abbreviation 'MDMA' instead of the more common term 'Ecstasy.'

"Drug-f**ked sex." I loved that line. It's so raw.
