Addicted

This poem is about overcoming the pain of choosing to lose your love because they do not treat you right.

You make it hard for me to breathe

You hear my lungs

You see me wheeze

I can't cough up the pain I feel

Instead my body just unreels

My insides strangle the hope I had

My life with you

My future

My past

I see your tricks

Your games

Your lies

I still come back

Still love

Still fight

My heart still beats

My ears still hear

So why do I give into fear

I'm so confused

With lies and pain

I can't handle this love

This evil, going insane

I will leave and never come back

Today, tomorrow?

Should have been in the past

You look at me and see me tremble

Giving you up as my drug,

Unbalanced, I stumble

My addiction never fades

By you have my dear

Still searching for the love

That was never here.

Oh.. I claim, this's a very heartfelt poetic version of beaten song written with an crimson ink of your pain... of your heartaches. Poor-hearts! Ah.. these poor-heartaches never let the spirit walk alone around the world with peace, but always make the heart writing such beautiful deep pieces dripped down off the flesh of your fleshy heart.
.. would be looking forward to reading your upcoming new-songs!
