Loving me is a war no one wins
I'm going to break your heart.
You will hate me when I'm done.
The light will flash
like a photograph
& I'll be gone.
It will be a magic trick
until you see me wandering lost
down the road unable to remember
who loved who.
You will hate me.
I will look neat
like I have my life figured out
until you see the blackened stump
of my teeth & from anger,
you will begin to feel pity,
then sadness & you will want to help
me but I will drag you down
with me into the abyss.
You will see the faces
that haunt me.
You will know their names
& you will try to help
until you are holding the needle
& fighting your arm for a vein
to escape the ether pouring
down your throat..

Wow, what a way to present addiction, very well done my friend. It is a love affair indeed, one of the worst xxxxx
Yes addiction is a terrible love affair.
It is always how you adorn your words with poetry. How they dance until they are relatable in so many weird ways.
I keep telling you you speak for some of us...
read me.❤️💕
It no longer a war when you give up.
War ended when you surrendered.
The only war left that is within you, for the real enemy is the messed up feelings in you.
I am not going to lie, but your poem made me sad.
But I am ok.
You write good buddy.
Words are your feelings on paper.
I am sorry for making you sad. Thank you for the kind words. Amin
Why apologize for sharing your feelings and thoughts? ❤️☮️
It's ok to feel.
Oh! Breathtaking! Sucked me in and spit me out. Left me in a whirl of hate, anger, betrayal, and despair. The image, no less.
I open your work with trepidation, because it so often does that to me.
But I open it.
Because it does that to me.
Great piece.
Thank you @owasco for your kind words and the way you speak about reading my work. I appreciate everything.
