Array ( [sid] => 140087 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Needing [time] => 2008-01-28 23:37:19 [hometext] => Just recently my first child was born, a beautiful little girl. When she arived I was inspired to give up smoking for her sake, this is a poem about my struggle so far, it's been a week without a smoke :| [bodytext] => I felt the need coming around again
It grabs my mind and pulls it in
These screams for more are now insane
To pull one back would do me in

I can not let these lines unravel
The hooks that sank deep into my flesh
They are stuck and will give no travel
Surrounded by this Deadly wire mesh

Those who now I can only view
Think not but once of my dying sin
with every passing sniff it grew
I long to join the chain so thin

Now as the need slowly passes me by
I no longer know for what I yearn
Forever closer to being free to fly
I hope this savage urge will one day turn [comments] => 5 [counter] => 361 [topic] => 66 [informant] => Poetic_Punk [notes] => ....edited for spelling as requested...mod_6 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )
