Not an Addict.

I swear I'm not..

When you're addicted to something,
You 're desperate to get your dirty hands on it, whatever it may be.
You can't get it off your mind.
It's always in your mind, just there..
& Try as you may,
You can't focus on what you need to.

You could think that you're not addicted at allll,
Because it's something you don't think you can be addicted to.
You can.
& You are.
It could be anything:
People, music, books, technology, violence, drugs,
Anything you can get your hands on.

As for me, My addiction is something to disregard.
It's not important to you, because you have your addictions too.
But guess what, pal?
Besides music, my addiction is you.

Eh. Just sad about my mp3 being screwed.

Addiction is a very powerful thing... no matter what it is.... I like this.... very good write !!!

I like how direct this is, and how you used simple statements to get your point across - it gets the reader really focused on what you're saying.
I guess we're all addicted to something, even if it's only inhaling and exhaling oxygen.

Nice work.

This is good! I can relate to being addicted to somethings. I think I have an addicition to writerscafe! This is good. I really liked how you ended the poem. Great work. Sorry your mp3 is messed up. I would be lost with out mine!
