Poison

Poison:

Everyone does it,
Doesnt make it right.
Trying to make it disappear,
Is like trying to win an impossible fight.

You can deny the addiction,
Not realizing its there.
But every time you take more poison,
It becomes a need like breathing air.

The poison fills your body,
Causing you to want more.
Making you oblivious to the damage your doing.
And creating problems you never had before.

As you slip into its Smokey embrace,
Youre engulfed with a calming feeling.
But the second the feeling breaks,
You need again, for more healing.

The want becomes stronger,
& with it more pain.
You blame the Poison,
When its really YOU who is to blame.

You let your life slip away,
& become attached to nothing.
It holds you down from happiness,
And never lets your heart sing.

& still you let yourself go
Not realizing youll never turn back
Because you decided to take a wrong turn
& go down the wrong path.
