The Poetry Addict
yes i admit it
that yes i'm an addict
give me something to cling to
and i'll take it to the limit
no i'm not proud
of some of what i've done
hard some days to keep the count
but definitely more than once
and now my latest addiction
seems to be poetry
some have even mentioned
that's not a bad place to be
are they too in denial
are they themselves too far gone
not knowing all the while
they're also playing to its song
with anything once you lose control
and it has control of you
the deeper you dig the hole
the more you tend to lose
to me it's a constant battle
i'll be fighting till the end
because yes i am an addict
and poetry, my latest addiction
