For those who know someone addicted or are addicted

Conversations between the breeze
this is where I want to be
she whispered back and forth to me
sky illuminated
sun set to flame
what is all this beauty
does it have a name
endless miracles
even as we sweat
impurities deep inside
expel all that hides

In dark alleys
It stole her soul
gave her ground to dig
a cave so deep
“Why don’t you bury me
I can hardly sleep.”
“Why do you bother to stay,
my heart has turned to clay.”

She implied that the mask
gave her strength
as it only fit her face
she claimed, “this is where I belong
this is my resting place.”

The truth of reality
crumbled beneath her
logic fell free
and broke into debris
inviting insanity
from the mirror
on the vanity
caging the thoughts
clustered in her mind
devouring any beauty
the she could find.

 

I really like this poem. Its dark but emotional. Its definitely one that can be felt rather than just read, for addicts and non-addicts alike.

 

I can feel the pain in this poem...very touching.
