Addiction

My memory starts to fade away

i think ive taken too much today

my sight is blurred, its getting dark

im stuck in this scary amusememnt park

its getting late, i should wake up

i dont want this high to stop so abrupt

as my eyes struggle to open wide

im more than ready for that trippy ride

i try to locatre a thick, strong vein,

and ask myself if im still sane

this needle with my addiction drug

with it i never need a loving hug

because as i shoot it inside of me

i feel so alive, so beautiful, so free

someday ill stop, and get the help i need

but right now, im not ready for that kind of deed

until tomorrow, i may not awake

to tell you the story, of my life as a fake.

as you probably have noticed

as you probably have noticed from many of my writtings I too struggle in the throws of addiction, only my vice are pills and not shooting up... I really do hope you are clean now but all in all you captured the emotion in this perfectly...


"I am my own sort of strange, a supernova of madness and brillance. Forced to share the same space and time. Sane enough to not be seen, yet not crazy enough to be heard." -- Matthew Wayne

I thought this was a really good piece. The whole rhyming couplet structure works for it and I just enjoyed reading it. Keep up the kick-ass work.
