Addict's Anthem

Sad but you hit a raw truth for some.

This is a sad truth but such a great poem. It's a cloak and self-inflicted dagger. Excellent write, Gershon .

one drug for another...yet whatever triggers the addiction remains.....

That is the way of it. Devastating when you see precious little ones grow up and see them fall away to shambles and destroy their lives. There is way too much of that happening, it makes me sad and mad all at the same time. Sometimes I think too many people lose hope, and turn to dope to cope! I am sorry I am absent most the time on site, and for now, just getting a fix on my own addiction of reading others poetry on site this evening. It is good to read your words as always!

Ooo Hoo! Trading one drug for another. Where does it stop. Happens all the time to people who look for a way to stop the pain of simply living. And it just makes you sicker than ever. A good write my friend. Just got a new pc after having my old one destroyed. I'm back now and hoping I haven't lost all my friends here. God Bless, JB
