Cold Turkey

I am not dependant,
I do not need,
Yet I can think of nothing else,
Except this hunger I wish to feed.

Physically I’m yearning,
Mentally I’m torn,
I know I shouldn’t, I wish I couldn’t,
To late the feelings are being born.

Flooding to the front of my mind,
This is where I begin to question,
Only one more, it won’t hurt,
I’m scared of self-confrontation.

Taking this mental battle to the last,
Knowing my body’s going to pay,
Trying to fight it, five more minutes,
Sod it, save quitting for another day.

Now were getting excited,
My body and my mind,
A smile inching across my face,
Picturing elation I’m about to find.

Sitting back, enjoying everything,
Taking it all in,
Colours vivid, sounds heightened,
How can they call this a sin.

I'm more like a monkey at a typewriter than I realise.

Untitled #Anger

It's the rage and the fire And the hatred It's the darkness screaming to get out It's the shadowy veil Dropping over my eyes Obscuring vision and sense. It's okay, I don't mind I accept it.

Wasted Years

Like a needle to the vein, I will never be the same, One injection and I'm done, Is it worth it - the long run.

Regrets

He rolls back over to his glass of vodka, As if worried that it'd gone away. Take a sip, feeling it bite back. It chases the thoughts and makes them play. Oh sure it can make him happy...

One More Tablet.

What is one more tablet. Knocked down with a drink, Readying the water glass, Addiction with a 'clink'. What is one more tablet.

The Hole In My Soul

I play a single role To fill the hole Inside my soul Its my only goal But can I fill it. NO Because NOTHING fits. And if it does it slips. Or doesn't stick. Or doesn't quite fit.
