This year i decided to join forenesics. Lately i have been such a poet it's kinda gross. I wrote one that i'm using in my poetry piece. Tell me if you like it please. It's nice to get opinions.
Dependency
Dependency is a funny thing
You think you have a handle on it
You do it once or twice
That turns into three or four
Sooner or later
Your missing things that were once important
You let everyone down
You finally realize what you’ve done
Who you’ve hurt
You try to stop
But it’s way to late
You’ve hurt everyone important
You’ve realized you’ve hurt yourself too
You think you need it
Needing it to survive
That it’s your only friend
It started out as fun
A chance to get away
Now it’s the only escape
The only escape from a world you made
The world you mad by doing it once or twice in the first place
You can become dependent on other things
It isn’t only drugs
You get attached to a feeling
And cannot let go
Just that one little second of happiness
Amongst all the pain
That little glimer of hope
Amongst all the heartache
It comes in many forms
Most people do stupid things to get away from it all
A break from the emotions
All you can think about is the pain
You get attached to a it
And you don’t want to give it up
Even that is an addiction
A dependency
Something you depend on to get by
You still have to break it
Alcohol, smoking,
Drugs, and pot,
Cutting, and self mutilation,
It’s all the same
All addictions
Something you depend on
They all hurt you
And you need to break them all
