Addiction...it's not funny.

Addiction...it's not funny.

A Poem by zee
"

Something I have a problem saying no to...

"

Can't get enough of it, I want it more and more

It really doesn't help when people walk with it through the door

Every day I tell myself no, I try to stay away

But when people bring it into my house, what am I supposed to say?

'I don't want that', yeah right!

I want that so bad, I want to take a bite

Some people think it's funny, but it's not, this is real

I want to have it every day, or it becomes a big deal

Every day, can you imagine? That's quite an awful lot

Numbing my mouth...mmm so good, especially when it's hot

It's so good and it feels so right

But when the morning comes my insides are all tight

Yeah, my body reacts in a negative way

Having it the night before can sometimes spoil the next day

By the afternoon the cravings sneak back up

I forget how sick it made me, forget I almost threw up

It's so good I want more I just can't get enough

I'll say, 'I'll stop' but it's just a bluff

Truthfully no one knows just how bad it can be

It's something I don't talk about I keep it all inside me

Silently waiting but the desire is deep

Two in the morning I satisfy my craving but then I can't sleep

A pint in the garbage disappeared in a snap

Am I ready to let it go or stay stuck in this trap?

Indeed! I know that feeling ALL TO WELL! I can't say no to quite a few things actually.
My BIGGEST temptation of them all...POTATOES! EGH! I love em baked..mashed..fried...stewed. Doesn't matter. And Mr.Potato loves me..especially my hips and rump! At first I thought yours was ice cream..but you can't have that hot. I wonder...hmmm..*ponders*. Great write..I love the concept...we all have our little vices;-)

I'm multifaceted and also multidimensional. My body doesn't define me. I'm a little bit of this and a whole lot of that. A free spirit, nonconforming mama of four, and hard to fit into a box. A goo.. more..
