Addiction

Addiction can be a very deadly thing, but it can also be equally as beautiful 

You were addicted to the feeling of smoke engulfing your lungs
The sensation of smoking weed
Manipulating girls for your own pleasure 
You were also addicted to running away from your problems and not even looking back
You were stuck in a life of deadly addiction 

But I was addicted too

I was addicted to the pleasure you received from allowing the smoke to over take you
The way you talked too much while high
Bettering myself so I could be one of the girls that were always on your mind
I was addicted to supporting you in all of the things you were addicted to 
I was stuck in the beautiful part of addiction 

Addiction can be a very deadly thing, but it can also be equally as beautiful

Who am I trying to fool? 
Both side slowly kill you
