Addicted

by ToTormentedToEvenCare   Jul 25, 2006


It started as a joke
a very simple snort
a puff,a smoke,
a mere needed dose

its effect came suddenly
and left him flying high
soring trough the
unknown skies

it lasted for some days
then he came crashing down
without no stop
to this world of ours

thinking of the rush
left him stumped
but hungry for more
seeking the unknown

nothing to buy
in his perfect world
yet craving for some more

LSD, he thinks
"need some"
crack, want some,
Ecstasy,Heroin,Ketamine
must have them

but he never realized
that he had a problem
that he had become addicted

addicted, to something that kills
addicted, to something that hunts
addicted, to something UN-explainable

he cant think straight anymore
he hears the light
and sees the sound
he eats the air
and breathes the food

he is lost
in the dark
his soul no
longer alive
his body lost

he know lives in hell
with no windows or doors

it all started as a joke
a very simple snort
a puff,a smoke,
a mere needed dose

    Very unique poem. It was a very good story and a good point on how easily people get addicted to drugs even by accident. I don't usually like free verse but I liked this one. Great job on it.
