Addiction of Pain

by LadyPearl   Jan 13, 2006


Take a sip out of the golden sea
Tell me later how your body now crave
the everlasting addiction inside your head
You've now become an addicted slave

You come on home to a cheerful wife
next thing you know, you get traumatized
Scared and saddened she shrinks away
What have you done, have you finally realized

One sip of that drug in your vein
tears of hurt come crashing silently near
This family is slowly drifting away
Our past days fade, the pain i can't bear

The thunder roar and clouds roam
As I come nearer to my dreadful fate
upon the carpet lays the shattered vase
I call for my mother in case it's too late

Wandering around I hear a cry
I look to see my father's terrible sin
My mother's body collapsed on the ground
A knife my father held, along with his grin

I run to her side in my afflicted horror
just then, my father points the knife at me
He says, "You'll suffer from the same agony
Staring in terror at his soft, evil glee

No, I cry as the knife touches my skin
Drawing back, staring at the cut he drew
Tears overflow as i stumble away
Why me, why her, I should have knew

Years later i still dream of that day
the day my family came to insanity
Father locked away and mother now gone
What more in my life have I still got to see?
