Addiction

Addiction   It’s in your life ..it’s in your home Nothing makes you feel more alone Addiction It consumes life And is willing to stab anyone who gets in its way with a knife Addiction It changes people right in front of your eyes It doesn't matter how many tears you cry Addiction It doesn’t care about you But you’ll lie for it and be untrue Addiction You’ll hide it due to shame But take some more to stop the guilt and pain Addiction It can kill take it at your own free will Addiction It controls your brain It leaves your loved ones feeling insane Addiction The high of life It will engulf your family , relationships husbands and wife’s Addiction Nothing else will ever be enough It will leave you with nothing but tough Addiction If you play with the devil then your one step too close It will only take people away who you love the most Addiction

you explain the effects of addiction very well, it is something that is so misunderstood by those who are not affected by it... expressed so well..

I had an ex partner who struggled with addiction and work with addiction therefore I know the impact all too well unfortunately
