PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

My fate is sealed as I submit to my vice

I will slip away in a bit

My blood turns to ice

As I realize I can't escape it

I fade into somewhere between

I have given up all hope of redemption

I slowly forget all I've seen

A face resurfaces to fight submission

I recall the hurt that I brought

I know I've cut you so deep

You looked so betrayed when I was caught

I thought to bring the release of sleep

All the hurt I brought I still see

How I was killing you like a poison dart

Now I see that won't free me

For I am forever trapped in your heart

I fight to emerge on top

I need to return to reality

This stupor needs to stop

I fight to be free from this insanity

I break those tightening chains

It will not hold me here

The new addiction begins

I embrace it without fear

You are my new addiction

My soul is fueled by you instead

Your love brought this on

Now I sleep in a better bed
