Hit me at 19
Thought I was too young to bleed
Raced ahead to lose the lead
Stable lost balance
I lost control
Consumed by drugs and alcohol
Jumped higher
Just to feel the fall
And when I sleep at night
I dont sleep at all
Cause when I need you here
You never answer my call
Now i'm screaming out
Theres no turning back
No replays
No escapes
Addiction my enemy
Enemy without a face [comments] => 4 [counter] => 251 [topic] => 66 [informant] => greyshadow [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

Teenage Tradgedy
Hit me at 19
Thought I was too young to bleed
Raced ahead to lose the lead
Stable lost balance
I lost control
Consumed by drugs and alcohol
Jumped higher
Just to feel the fall
And when I sleep at night
I dont sleep at all
Cause when I need you here
You never answer my call
Now i'm screaming out
Theres no turning back
No replays
No escapes
Addiction my enemy
Enemy without a face

Ok, I just want to say you did an excellent job putting your addiction into words. I could totally relate, hence my screen name, lol. But in all seriousness a lot of people cannot understand addiction. "Just say no" my a$$! ANd unless you have been there you will never get it. But since I do get it ,I loved this peice. I have been in the struggle for going on 10 years now, and God knows it doesn't get easier, well at least not for me. Thank you for sharing. Loves it! XOXOX
