Nothing Will Stand in the Way

Folder: 
Addictions

To have a love that you wouldn’t give up

For anything in the world

What would you do for that love?

Anything and everything you had to do

You wouldn’t let anyone get in your way.

Not your mother, father, best friend, or even your lover

When you are addicted that much

Nothing will stand in the way

You will do what you have to

To take that one last drink

Weather it be

Love or loneliness

Life or death

Paying rent or being homeless

Nothing will get in the way

This poem is very very deep, and very hard to fathom. I can't tell if it's supposed to be good or bad. I've been pondering that for a bit. I haven't read many poems that make me think this much. Great job!
