Julie Ann Jones Poet Acrostic

Another Night In Paradise

Another 
night 
in 
paradise 
the 
cobbles 
being 
tread,    
The 
only 
source 
to 
see 
of 
course 
my 
habit 
remains 
fed,Another 
nights 
denial 
where 
my 
switch 
is 
set 
to 
off,Another 
night 
asking 
myself 
when 
is 
enough 
enough,Two 
decades 
plus 
under 
my 
belt 
and 
still 
wake 
everyday,convinced 
next 
week 
ill 
get 
the 
strength 
to 
stand 
and 
walk 
away,The 
seedy 
kerb 
side 
crawlers 
the 
pretence 
and 
the 
lies,The 
looks 
that 
burn 
right 
through 
as 
they 
undress 
me 
with 
their 
eyes,The 
price 
tag 
i 
attach 
to 
myself 
asks 
me 
what 
on 
earth,Where 
you 
thinking 
Julie 
ann 
its 
tenfold 
more 
you're 
worth,So 
twenty 
five 
years 
later 
when 
I've 
paid 
a 
hefty 
price,I 
still 
get 
read 
for 
another 
night 
in 
not 
so 
nice.
