Lately i been getting the feeling to write more again, it has been 2 years since i wrote something but lately i been getting the feeling again. So fiqure i will post some of my work. :)
I am Attracted
I am attracted to those who seem,
To have the world at their fingertips,
I beome addicted to the deceiving,
Warmth of their powerful flame.
In the end I am left with the chocking entrapment,
Of a smothering and smoky chamber.
I am attracted to those who want to make me happy,
I am addicted to their enticingly,
Sweet and devoted assurances.
In the end I am left with only a taste,
Of their butter resentments and broken promises.
I am attracted to those who would like to improve my life,
I become addicted to the inspiring goals,
And aspirations that they hope to see me achieve.
In the end I am left with only the burdens,
Of my own exhaustions, apathy, and emptiness.
I am addicted to those who give me a sense of direction,
I become addicted to their protective and promising path.
In the end I am left with only a tedious,
Road that leaves me lost, restless, and lonely.
I am attracted to those who claim to love me for who I am,
I become addicted to their show of loyality and appreciation.
In the end I am left with only the painful realization,
That I am not good enough after all.
Attraction is my lure,
Addiction becomes my entrapment,
I know I can combat imprisonment as I learn to trust my own,
Judgement, decisions, desires.
I must continue the search for my own key,
That can unlock the liberating treasures, hidden within.
