Issam Aladdin - Do You Feel It?

My friend.
do you feel it?
feel that accelerating rush
that exhilarating pulse
down your chest.
do you feel it?
I think you do.
Take a black and white picture
of this moment
this slow paced moment
and save it in your pocket
you can later repeat the process.
It may only be a second
but it unwraps a lifetime.
the best part of the best drug in the world
isn't the high
its the time just before you take it
the dice dancing on the table
the smoke filling up your lungs
the dealer about to turn the card
the pill in your tongue
the ball spinning in the roulette
the drink in your lips
the substance up your nose
the staring before the kiss
its between the now and then
the birth of the greatest high
My friend.
do you feel it?
