Migdalia Torres Poet Blank verse

Addiction My Friend

Addiction my Friend
Poet: Migdalia Torres


No one knows the shadows that fall when

addiction rules a minor’s soul

Addiction my friend that raises me

Lord help me not to pretend,

The hell I am going through to concord this

Addiction my friend, it will be to the end

Farewell to Hope, Love, and Glory

No one will know until I am buried in this snow

Addiction my friend we will depart only at the end

God forgive my soul, for addiction took its toll

Now no one cares, but the addiction was there in my time of despair

Addiction my friend that raises me

This virus took my soul,

but the addiction was there to comfort my pain and sorrow

Addiction my friend you fail me at the end

Addiction my friend that raises me
