Desire For Relief

Desire for relief becomes a bane to the health beyond the pain when the angst has assumed proportions past the natal wound the remedy has long ceased even as disaster builds as byproducts are ignored against the numbing of the balm clearly sought to assuage anguish found beyond the base if only life was more than strife self-medication would be denied the impostor has been seen still this path is pursued gladly sucked with due shame as false relief fills a frame the curative has been bypassed by transgressions to the flesh embarked upon to find relief from the ills beyond the pain.
