I was addicted
A user
of a drug so strong
a drug so potent
One
which killed me
from the inside
day by day
hour by hour
but
I was addicted
for melancholia seemed worse
the drug did wonders
I was free at last
from the lonesome worries
and humiliating insecurities
but as great as the high seemed
it did things to me
nasty things
It narrowed my vision
made me myopic
It dilated my heart
Water flowed in my veins
instead of the red serum
Every hit made me crave for more
My tongue against the sweet soft flesh
licking, kissing inhaling and snorting
Made me weaker day by day
Yet
As we all know
God works in mysterious ways
and work he did
making me realize
to mend my wrong ways
but the battle was not over
for there was
yet to be
The Withdrawal
P.S. – I don’t do drugs and neither should you and “The Withdrawal” would be the Part-II to this. This is my first time trying something completely out of the box and out of my comfort zone so please do comment what you think.
Much Love,
–SG
This was highly unlike your usual stuff, and I really enjoyed it!

it is building up tension (for part 2) and it sounds like it’s is about one thing but it is probably going to be about something else. I like it π
