Addiction

There is nothing no one can tell you

There is nothing you feel you can do

It’s an addiction and to beat it

Will be a task this is true



You will steal, lie, and cheat

Just to get a hit

You will lay your life on the line

To just get a feel for it



Needing it to live, or so you think

Is your problem …..

It will actually kill you in one blink

of an eye

So open them wide and please realize

You are killing your self



No matter what it may be

This addiction is taking over

It’s taking over our relationship

The bond between you and me



Please take a look

At what you have become because of it

This addiction baby

Ain't worth SHIT!

As an alcoholic, who hasn't taken a drink since May 1976, I am right there with the addiction and what it does to those closest to the addict.
I would imagine this is written from the heart. I makes me feel my past, and that's good.
