Long Poems About Addiction
1) “The Addiction of the Mind”
The addiction of the mind,
Is a demon hard to shake,
It grips you tight,
And makes you ache.
It whispers sweet nothings,
And tells you it’s okay,
But it’s a lie,
That leads you astray.
It takes you down,
A path dark and cold,
It’s a cycle that never ends,
And leaves you feeling old.
2) “The Addiction of the Body”
The addiction of the body,
Is a need that can’t be denied,
It takes over control,
And leaves you fried.
It tells you that you need it,
To feel alive,
But it’s a lie,
That leaves you in a dive.
It takes you down,
A path of destruction,
It’s a cycle that never ends,
And leads to self-corruption.
3) “The Addiction of the Soul”
The addiction of the soul,
Is a hunger that can’t be filled,
It leaves you empty,
And unfulfilled.
It tells you that you need it,
To feel complete,
But it’s a lie,
That leaves you incomplete.
It takes you down,
A path of despair,
It’s a cycle that never ends,
And leaves you in repair.
4) “The Addiction of the Heart”
The addiction of the heart,
Is a love that can’t be true,
It takes over control,
And leaves you blue.
It tells you that you need it,
To feel alive,
But it’s a lie,
That leaves you in a dive.
It takes you down,
A path of sorrow,
It’s a cycle that never ends,
And leaves you inorrow.
5) “The Addiction of the World”
The addiction of the world,
Is a need to be adored,
It takes over control,
And leaves you ignored.
It tells you that you need it,
To feel alive,
But it’s a lie,
That leaves you in a dive.
It takes you down,
A path of emptiness,
It’s a cycle that never ends,
And leaves you with a mess.
