Breaking the Addiction

Contributed by allforyou on Sunday, 6th February 2005 @ 11:02:56 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry

Heroin warms my blood and taints my x-ray-vision,
because I care too much what other people see in me.
Too young to know that I have made the wrong decision,
months before I could control my need (for speed and nicotine).

Faster than light, a burnt out bulb to be replaced,
empty packs and dull knives thrown out on the ground.
Running away from all the fears I should have faced,
finish my morning jog around this hell-hole-town.

You wouldn't think that I'm this way, no not at all,
but looks deceive, and weed can lead to angels' cries.
And now your angry that I have finally come to fall,
well, your disbelief in me caused my demise.

Break the pattern,
you will see.
There's even life,
inside of me.
But with each hope,
I found a doubt.
Trying so hard,
to live without.

All of the things,
that I thought helped.
But kept me down,
'caused me to melt.
If I hold on,
will you be there.
Because I need,
someone who cares.

And if I stop,
doing these things.
Can you maybe,
just forgive me?
Because you mean,
the world to me.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
