Addiction

Dear Addiction As my heart covets the great pleasure and satisfaction You bring to me I say no to you. You brought me love when the world rejected me, Food when I was hungry Smiles when I was sad Laughter when tears filled my eyes Joy when I was low Strength when I was weak Vision when I was blind Speech when I could not talk Confidence when low self-esteem visited me All you brought I wanted All you brought I needed All you brought I enjoyed But you then took away the biggest thing I had MY LIFE I now depend on you I now feed on you I now breathe you I now talk only to you I now hope to be with you I now just see you Nothing in this world brought to thy sight of my weakened, vision is ever important I never got the chance to discover myself… To dream of my own interests… To plan my own future… To work towards my own goals Because you all that I’m made of But I now have realized u not here forever You don’t treat me the way I treat you You don’t value me like I do You don’t care much like I do No love at all, for this has been one sided… It’s always been about you and never about me You only selfish and never selfless You always careless and never careful And you always hopeless and never hopeful I have decided to choose otherwise Good Bye Yours Addictee

Ruvimbo,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
