The ABC’s of Addiction: A Poem About Addiction

Any thing I like to do
Brings me to a new hue
Causing me to lose control
Driving me out of my soul
Ecstatic feeling is what I want
Finding only a fake font
Getting instant gratitude
Hiding my real attitude
Inching my way up a step
Jabbing into a new fret
Kicking myself in the butt
Learning that I’m in a rut
Making excuses all the time
Not being able to climb
Openly making big mistakes
Pursuing whatever it may take
Quitting things I shouldn’t quit
Running to get my next fix
Staring blankly into space
Tears running down my face
Using anything I can
Veins popping out of my hand
Wishing that I was normal
X-raying my life before
Yesterday wasn’t too bad
Zigging when I should of zagged
