ADDICTIONS UNLEASHED

ADDICTIONS UNLEASHED

A Poem by Evelynne Tionge

It was just like any other day
I was going through my daily tasks
On a warm summer monday
When you unveiled my complex masks

My heart skipped a beat when you passed me
You captivated me from the very start
And for a moment i thought it was meant to be
Yet on the inside i somehow felt torn apart

On i thursday i heard your voice
In a sweet charming low tone
I was left without a single choice
For my reasoning was far gone

Then on a sunday i felt your touch
Gentle slow warm and soothing
Your kiss seemed to light a match
And lit a fire to prevent me from moving

Addictions were unleashed swiftly
Whose end would only be doom
And i made up bigger lies slowly
Cause away from you i was surrounded by gloom

Tick by tock my addictions began to grow
An inch apart seemed light years
And without remorse my life away i began to throw
Letting go of my nightmarish fears

I had it all figured out in paris
Till i was left standing on the ledge
Im looking down on a dying Iris
Cladded in my addiction as i lie at the bottom of the end
