tanorexia

A beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky; sun.
When this addiction falls upon me, it's like a drug.
I'm hooked.
How it feels on my skin, its effect is lovely.
I need more, i need to gain the complexion I desire.
But it's never enough, I need to be darker.
The sun on my skin, the warmth on my eyelids, a slight breeze hit my hair.
Amazing.
Crack out the tanning oil, lay it on thick.
Darker...darker...darker...
A look in the mirror, a sense of disappointment.
I need more, I need to gain the complexion I desire.
But it's never enough, I need to be darker.
A disease. A drug. An addiction.
Tanning is my addiction.
