My Poems: The Story of Your Life? [Completed]

Addiction

"It is hard to understand addiction unless you have experienced it." - Ken Hensley

Did you know I used to be normal

Easy to find, easy to see

But my addiction took it all away

Can't you see what it's done to me?

Everything I do, I do for the addiction

Always on my thoughts, on my mind

What would I do without it?

Within days I would have died

At first I was still alive

But with just a few more clicks

My life slowly drained away

The marks on my wrists, slits

It took away everything I cared for

I began to spend the days in my room

Addicted to the artificial light

That led my way to doom

Just one button that makes it alive

My laptop would beam and glow

Every second, minute, hour, day

Would make my addiction grow

But what if the power shuts down

Will it come back?; my heart fills with dread

A blank screen in a locked room

The next day, someone might find me dead.
