addiction

as i write this letter to you, i am fully aware that you have forgotten about me so i thought i would jog your memory a little bit.

Remember when we embraced each other all day and all night? Remember when you would have done anything for me? you would walk the streets day or night, rain hail or snow just to be with me. You would lie for me, you would steal from me, and you stuck by me when your family of friends couldn't stand me. Your feelings for me were so strong that you would have died for me. I know you loved me so much you would willingly have killed for me.

Remember every night before you slept, we would hug one more time and i would stay by your side all through the night? I would be there when you woke from the nightmare of not having me around, yes, I'd be there to hug you and ease your fears. Remember me bugging you every morning when you woke. I was your food and water, your lifeblood.

Remember the time you got out of the psych unit and i was waiting with outstretched arms? Or each time you got out of a police station my loving embrace would meet you at the gates? Even when you were in prison I managed to get into you pretty often to show my love and willingness to stay with you forever. Whenever you felt really low or sad I was your shoulder to cry on. Even when you were happy and having fun I was with you to share the good times.

Well after all is said and done, i have no soubt you still think of me and deep down you would fancy one more fling with me. Now that you look so good and are going to college you are even more appealing to me. So, co on honey , I'm waiting for you.

(((((((((((angel)))))))))))))))))

Absolutely chilling. And absolutely real. Very good writing. Keep yourself safe.

Honey, this is one lover you can leave behind. Be strong, walk away, and don't look back.

man, that is powerful...now just imagine pushing that addiction of a deadly cliff every time it appears...for it is the enemy...a wolf dressed in sheep fleese for sure!

Haunting and powerful.....I've had the same lover.....and still embrace much too often.........

It's just as eerie hearing it the second time and the third. Thanks for sharing it...this poem is something that's needs to be heard...cause it's so real.

jme, but drugs and alcohol for those of us that are/were addicted are the eptitome of evil. they will promise us everything yet strip us bare, taking away our souls, our spirituality, our family, our financial security and finally our lives.
what they really promise us is jails, institutions and death. i've buried a lot of friends in the youth of their lives because they chose to believe what drugs and alcohol promised them. it's ain't worth it to believe any of it's promises.
