Addiction

When life gives you something you wanted,
But something you didn't expect,
It's a feeling that some would say haunted,
Their life in a retrospect,
You're thinking,
And acting,
And doing,
Pursuing the things you pursue,
But then someone will ask you a question,
That has left you without a clue,

Your answerless answers await,
As stress piles up on your plate,
But the entirety of life seems to lack,
Then you're left with the choice to go back,

It's repulsive addiction,
Some sort of fiction,
A riddle that's never solved,

But there's no room to fiddle,
You're stuck in the middle,
The problemless problem resolved
