Summarize

Yep. I’m The Addict. I’ve Just Had it.

Destructing feelings by habit—Poetry Power PART#1-My tactic to getting the Normi to understand addiction!

Understanding anything is YOUR choice.

SHARE THIS POEM & MAKE SOME NOISE!

CLAP, COMMENT, HIGHLIGHT, & IF YOU CARE ITS A SHARE!

First read it, then after you stare you might care enough to share it!

Like a dog without a bone most the addicts won't say it.

I'm not scared though, now willing to tell you all about ABUSE.

Whatever thing I felt I didn't think twice about numbing the NEWS.

The news he told me to keep INSIDE.

The abuse deep down he knew I CRIED.

Understanding my story about how my addiction started around the time my parents got DIVORCED.

Then my feelings got put aside like FORCED.

I'm scared now to publish my true story I have written TODAY!

Because my sexual abuser is alive — OK?

Ya I'm the ADDICT’

The one who still got bad HABIT’s.

I’m still addicted today — THOUGH.’

If I’m honest let's say SO.

Can BE unfortunately SCARY.

Before you see my poem as a SUGGESTION.

Read it as THE LESSON!

I’ll start with honesty by telling you about the FOOD.

How my first addiction was trying to out-eat that MOOD!

That still comes into PLAY TODAY.

I don't know what more to SAY.

Are mind-altering foods to the sober addict now, OK?

I live in fear every DAY — THOUGH!

Running from fear I can't get away from— Hear me now when I SAY SO.

I met CAFFEINE MAN

Which now I’m a FIEND AND..

That isn't the big PROBLEM.

Left with HOPE WE can solve THEM!

MY Dad’s Famous Quote

Some don't even parents take NOTE!

I know that if we are both OPEN.

To what we put our HOPE IN.

Like waking up not addicted SOMEDAY.

OR…just to numb to feel, OK?

It’s all the false IMPRESSIONS.

Now I can teach you a LESSON!

A lesson less of IMPRESSIONS of how we can stop all our STRESSING.

If you just take the LEAD of all the things that we NEED!

So, listen to my POEM.

Where the hope can be KNOWN.

Every single ADDICT!

Comes destruction, then HABITS.

HABITS WE KNOW WE CAN'T BREAK.

Could be confronted with a big piece of CAKE!

Your runaway feelings that have already HAD IT!

Eating cake has always been my mind-altering HABIT!

So let me tell you that lesson….

The one you could HAVE IT!

Mind-altering substances to numb that FEELING.

Leaves some hopeless coped learned lessons worth STEALING.

Sugar and CAFFEINE MAN had me LYNCHED.

Before Nicotine had STANDED THE ULTIMITE GRYNCH!

Nicotine has still got me hook line and SINKER.

Is this why I can't become a normal day THINKER?

The number one drug that is killing HUMANITY!

It’s NICOTINE, now we CAN'T gain our SANITY?

It hit me hard when I looked up the STATS.

Ha, IM kidding I don't even give a CRAP!

Nicotine is a stimulant found in numerous different products on the market TODAY.

It still has a tightrope around addicts I SAY!

I been using mind altering products to change my brain chemistry or alter my MOOD.

I knew exactly what I was doing when it started with FOOD!

All addicts are using something that I found quite COMMON.

Nicotine being used to BOMB IN.

Bomb the unwanted feelings that are coming our WAY.

Are addicts ever going to be able to cope naturally — OK.

I learned that I only had to change one thing and one thing ONLY!

That is what the best sponsor of all TOLD ME!

‘If you want to get clean of all mind-altering substances Derek you must change ONE THING!’

EVERYTHING!

SO

YA I'm the addict who has had it. Had it with the worst enemy of all and that is MYSELF.

I keep tucking my feelings aside like a book on a SHELF!

If my poem has got you well known of what the problem is with addicts!

Some can't kill the worst killing HABITS!

I got diagnosed with the CANT DO’S way back in the DAY!

Negative thinking pattern Id SAY!

Mind-altering food addiction — is way better than the old me I'm MISSING!

Thats why I’m always struct in the KITCHEN!

When he says DAD — Why do I get so MAD?

There is so many mind-altering things that he is going to have to AVOID.

that's okay because if I can say I teach him what I did do not to, that is what I will do for my SON.

Addiction is not FUN!
