Addiction

Poetry, Writer life

You’re the best thing I’ve ever had
You, my dear, turn me mad.
 
Society, family, must-dos, and must-bes,
I fought will all for this addiction.

 You make me come alive,
You make me see the light.

Everyone says you’re taking me down,
But you’re a catholicon to all my problems.
 
Yet they say, you’re poison,
Taking me further from my ambition.
 
But I’ve made you my ambition,
You’re my goal, my love, my passion.
 
Go on, judge me, give me the verdict
I proudly admit I’m an addict!

This addiction has saved me a million times
When I was on brink of taking my life.
 
Taken me to worlds not all can think of
Met creatures, one can only imagine.
 
No, I’m not addicted to drugs
It’s books that take me to a different world!
