give me something to believe in,
when i cant see your face.
tell me your waiting
you love me and have faith
I'm fighting so hard,
with such an addiction,
your my pillar of strength
when this drug digs its teeth in

tell me you'll be there,
after what we've been through,
all that we've lost
brushed off old
that's now new


sometimes i buckle
and lose my nerve
to a temptation so strong
that causes a splurge.
and there you wait
on the other side
knowing I'm sorry
as you hold me tight.


alone we sit,
as i sleep of the day,
you are all that's left.
when the high melts away.
i open my eyes,
am over come with such force
when i catch a glimpse
of a heart breaking site
I've seen to much before,
the look of one feening
searching for just a little more.
but its in your eyes I'm finding some one who's sick
of some one hurting and waiting there next fix.


i only see it,
when raw nerves are strained
you take such a beating
your addiction is the saddest
of so many things
your vice is my heart.
no needle
but the most poisonous sting
you'll do anything to have it
your addiction,
is the worst kind of habit.
for ever waiting
on the love of an addict


this poem was not written about me, it was written in in the view of an addicts eyes struggling with an addiction, watching their loved ones fight to help them over come it.

I Love this! very touching!!

Good write on a sad subject

What an amazing translation, of raw feelings and accuracy together.

Very well stated and an awesome expression

BRAVO

Amazing...Sadly many addicts (myself included was clean 2+ years and sadly relapsed a few days ago) fail to see anything but the next score and don't realise the tole they are taking on those around them....

thank you :) its hard to be addicted to anything much less a drug. ive been addicted to many things my self, one of which was meth. so i know its a strugle, but its easier with some one beside you
